Looking at the way people treat each other, let alone general competition between species.
That's a valid moral point, then there is the possibility of carrying microbes to the other planets' inhabitants.
I suppose it might be possible for a very tiny number of people using technologies as yet unknown, far into the future.
Whether non-biological humans could actually 'be' human is a discussion in itself.
I tried optimism once, it was awful.

Being human is overrated.
I think I am a biological machine, a meat robot, if you will. There's no such thing as the soul, nothing at all spiritually significant about being human rather than a sponge or a pineapple.
I think if I were to replace every part of you with equivalent or superior technology, piece by piece, even braincell by braincell, there would not come a point when you'd consider yourself less than human.

That's really is a thought experiment, unlikely to become a reality.
I don't understand what is meant by a soul really, it's part of some old religious superstition.
The awareness of one's body through multiple networks (eg. More serotonin is present in the digestive system than in the brain), proprioception etc would have to be modelled.
An exact replica in metal is a fantasy.

Does wearing a hearing aid,
or a pacemaker, or a titanium or plastic hip, make you less human?
If you use a telescope, or read a dictionary, or use a device to access information, does that make you less human?
