Of course they lose the natural functionality. ][f you cut off your
hand, would you lose the use of your fingers?

List essence. Meta's get no "bonus" because they had special vision.
Operative word there: HAD. Stick in cyberoptics with ][R/UV and he
pays for 'em. Just like chopping your arm off and putting a cyber arm
on in it's place. You've had an arm your whole life; too bad, cough up
the essence.
