What sort of "environmental consequences" are you thinking of? Extreme crossbreeding? That's not a problem. Hybrid animals (ie chimera) are sterile. For example, a mule. The mule hasn't caused "environmental consequences" AFAIK....

But please take into account that each year, the GDC has to come up with a rule book that will spend the next three months being picked apart by 40,000 of the brightest, most creative minds on the planet. I think they do an outstanding job of it. - dtengineering [more]
