Let me get this straight: are you saying that, if for example, I am
simulating a soldier in battle, and I assume that soldiers don't
clone themselves during the actual fighting, then I am not allowed
to give their software counterparts the ability to clone themselves
on the basis that it is not part of the model being simulated?

I must've missed the point completely...
