Now At Vote.
This is currently failing at vote [For 2,933 / Against 4,542 (60.8% Against), Voting ends in 3 days 13 hours], but we should be prepared to either strike it or say "nah, go ahead" should the voters switch (as is not unheard of).
I don't believe any of Ara's arguments actually holds water, but IA brought up GAR #425, which reads in part:
Mandates:
...That Member-States consider any temporarily or permanently incapacitated member of a species known to be sapient, to be themselves Sapient, regardless of disability or condition,
That says to me that even if you tweak the clone a bit to exclude (say) a central nervous system, it's still a human (ursine, equine, etc. accounting for GA RP) being. At first glance, therefore, this looks illegal for contradicting #425. Willing to be convinced otherwise, but it seems fairly clear in a way none of the other arguments have.
