100% agreed, however one of the promising aspects of bioreactors is that once you got a genetically modified organism to produce the compound you want, with a stable marker to select against, then you have a relatively stable production method that doesn't involve that much human error. Which is also why the pharmaceutical industry has been moving to such processes where possible.
