My apologies. I understand your feelings on this matter, Ion. Rest assured, this does not reflect how my views on yourself or Luke. Merely, I cannot help but consider other individual cases in which this could have helped a replica to turn out for the better. [Primarily, he thought of Nebilim. But as much as he wanted to believe that it would help her, he knows that wouldn't solve the primary problem of the mental instability which was caused by his method of fomicry. No, nor would it solve the true primary problem of having killed her in the first place.]
