It does bring up an interesting point

The dude crashed onto a planet with nothing more than a science library in his suit,

And he works up (in only a matter of hours in some cases) all the way up to a working space industry

Damn son, NASA hire this man (if they hadn't already...)

Or how about an advanced robotic explorer to prepare the world for occupation of hand-writing robots, all named Turry?

It's not a heartbeat...it's a low frequency audio alert to remind the AI to seek help

Who of you is wearing glasses? Who has teeth replacements? Who has had an operation and has now titanium screws in his bones? WHo is taking his mobile phone even to his bed?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyborg#Overview
According to some definitions of the term, the physical attachments humanity has with even the most basic technologies have already made them cyborgs.
So, ok, it can be discussed, but the border is really not so far away from us. :)
