Printed organs made from cells and genetically engineered might be better than what we have. The body is a brilliantly complicated thing and it will be incredibly hard for us to make artifical organs as replacements because an organ is essentially a machine built of many tiny machines and the body has a lot of functions to clean and repair itself that a plastic organ simply wouldn't: macrophages that move withing the tissue, different types of nervous and sensory tissue that innervate different organs, the lymphatic system, etc. No artifical organs can top that right now.

I think that too sometimes. Some laypeople and students tend to want to diagnose and classify everyone around them (oftentimes with the wrong labels and because they don't understand or like the person) and some trained professionals also like to pigeonhole people without attempting to really get to know them or understand them as well (many "mental health" professionals don't belong in the profession at all). Sometimes personality disorder labels = societal persecution and rejection vs someone getting the help they need especially those labelled as having cluster B traits.
