When would we see him, and flashclones die at young ages and do nothing, what's so interesting?
They usually die young because of the defects that usually manifest in them.
But John is lucky, who's to say his clone isn't too?
I was about to say that! John was super lucky and super tough. So why wouldnt his clone be too?
Because that would be one of the worst plot devices ever, flash clones have a lifespan of a few months at best. Halo Evolutions: Palace Hotel pretty much tells us his flash clone died anyway.
No, they usually develop complications but that's not a 100% sure thing.
That's exactly like saying nobody dies from cancer.
You don't understand flash cloning, do you? Flash cloning a human is pretty much modifying a cloned human embryo to make it develop a hundred times faster than normal. Because of this, flash clones have biological defects which cannot be corrected. After about a month they begin to suffer from metabolic cascade failure and die because of neurological disorders.
This is why flash cloning is unethical in the Halo universe, this is why it was declared illegal. Because those subject to it DIE, there are no exceptions.
