Well, if you can still edit the gene in an adult and it's not passed on, it seems fairly common sense to wait until the disease manifests (in most cases) and gene therapy would be another tool in the treatments available.
No reason, for example, to alter an alzeheimer's gene in an embryo if it can be done as an adult long before any onset.
