So this is what I think about cloning. It is just another tool that will
make it possible for some infertile couples to have the biological child
they could not otherwise have, and will enable some not-infertile parents
to better satisfy their reproductive preferences as well.

It might also make it possible for someone to have a younger identical
twin.
So, what's the big deal? Why not let people have younger identical twins?
