I've been considering it too, it feels like as of recently the new findings coming out were done with new SNP's not tested previously. I'm just paranoid that i'll have to keep doing it ever 3 years. For now, i'm planning on waiting until there's a result i'm truly interested in.

I did it on a whim, then it turned out I carry the gene for an elevated risk of something nasty. Then I was like, yeah, you got my attention now.

Just an example of how you could become "interested in" it post-hoc.
