Broken chromosomes (or a DNA cut) are a major type of stress that disrupts the epigenome.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
apparently showing for the first time that DNA breaks leave lasting epigenetic scars
DNA breaks leave lasting epigenetic scars.
Natural DNA breaks also disrupt the epigenome
Changes occur genome-wide, not just at breaks
