Heh. I'd like to see the day when one of the other clone commanders come along and open fire on em. "Your defective minds gives the rest of us a bad name. Accept your death in the name of clone superiority!"Edit: A god complex for that commander of yours probably won't make much sense. He sounds like a nice guy, giving the underdogs a chance.

If they're defunct it's usually more cost effective if they're killed quickly due to the nutrition pills that clones eat once they are awakened from their initial sleep stage before they get fully functional, so some cruel commanders might actually do that to the survivors after they completed their first mission and before they start costing extra. You'd have to use a lot of defunct clones on each mission to do the work of far less normal clones so said increased food bill for decreased productivity might cost more then the rewards for the completed mission. That's why the organization was hesitant to even give them a chance rather then just outright killing them.

That doesn't mean this commander guy is nice for taking them under his wing, although he's obviously better then the alternative. He could still have a god complex in controlling those weaker then him. Plus he could actually make them cost effective due to his strategies, even if not as cost effective as normal clones. He also might not have been able to get so many clones under his command had he requested normal clones. This could be a cold, calculated move on his part to build up an army. He might have been a relative nobody in the organization up until then.

EDIT: And maybe he realized they don't have the same inhibitions "programed" into their minds to never betray the organization leaders. Maybe he figures this out and thinks he can somehow overthrow them using these clones and gain all power for himself? Who knows.

For some reason I just like clone characters.
