In the rule “Mutations”, add the following text:
When performing a Mutation, the Cost of that Mutation is increased by 1 for that performance if the changes caused by that performance would result in a Codon that has an Effect becoming a Codon with no Effect.
Once a Codon exists in the Genome that has an Effect, it becomes tied to survival and resists being neutralized. Changing one Codon with an Effect to another with an Effect wouldn’t have this increased Cost.
Feels a bit artificial. Engineers can already make certain sequences harder to remove by duplicating them.
