Am I missing a cynical joke, or are you serious?
You may have inadvertently "hit the nail" . . . clones are crafted reproductions. Would you expect a rift between "orginals" and "reproductions"? If you could clone, let's say 100 Tiger Woods to play golf, what does that do to the value of the original?

Go rent the 1997 movie "Gattaca" and besides tepid performances by Uma and Ethan, look at the life of the "Valids" and "Invalids".
