    Would you prefer supervision, supersmell, superfeel, superhearing, or supertaste? And what about the other senses of the body that are not part of the quintet? Think balance, temperature, and even the ability to feel where all your body parts are (you can close your eyes, wave your hands around, and touch your knee)

    For me, I would pick supervision. It would be really cool to see better in the dark, have built-in camera zoom, and see in higher detail.

    I have really good hearing and it honestly sucks sometimes because you can't really not hear some things when you really, really, really wish you couldn't.

    With super-vision at least I can close my eyes.

      Vision makes the most sense for something useful and marketable

              Spunds like you need Super Hearing Pro. Now with the additional upgrade of in built ear-plugs.

                Assuming supertaste enables me to make broccoli taste like Pad Thai. I’ll go with that one.

                If it only heightens the sense - then probably less likely to pick that one.

                It makes you super tasty. Unfortunately, once the cannibals learn about you, you'll be forced to live on the run.

                  Supervision?

                  Since when is being a manager a super power?

                        There are many dimensions to each of our senses. Just taking super-vision as an example, would that involve seeing very small things, seeing things at great distances, seeing through things or around corners, seeing more colors and/or wavelengths of light, seeing in 360°, seeing more subtle things than others see (like being able to see when someone's heart rate increases), processing what you see quicker (for quicker reactions), photographic memory, seeing things others can't (like magnetic fields or temperature), greater "frame rate", seeing in the dark, a HUD with information display, seeing ghosts, or something else entirely I haven't even thought of?

                          Superfeel. I want to feel a speck of dust and know someone farted 2 km away.

                              hearing, because we cant hear like ultrasonic or infrasonic frequencies the way some animals can, plus hearing things on the otherside of the planet, ability to control or filter unnecessary noises, barring supernatural abilities as well. plus vision that we can see x rays and gamma rays, and UV without a medical disease, microscopic vision.

                                Super hearing, to the point of echolocation (Which apparently some blind people can actually do in a very basic form as a learned skill!?)

                                      I have stronger than average taste and smell. Do not recommend. Various things taste pretty awful, I'm more sensitive to smells and even things I like can become overwhelming.

                                      I used to be able to see better in the dark than anyone I know, but that has faded with age. I've also always been somewhat colorblind so fixing that might be nice. I would also fix my hearing being kinda wonky (as in basically useless whenever multiple things are producing sound at once).

                                      I'm tempted to want some kind of better balance or electromagnetic perception (though that one could be awful for the same reason I wouldn't want to see much beyond what I do on the visible light spectrum since UV radiation and infrared could be a wall of noise).

                                        None. I'd be happy with seeing and hearing properly.
