Think about it, they are going to die anyway, why not clone marines and send them to the front lines to fend off Covenant forces? They cloned Spartans, I'm sure Marines are no different, would be similar to the Clone Army of Star Wars, a gene host creating clones out of the gene pool. They could make an army in such a short amount of time. Considering that Halsey managed to replace the clones with the Spartans and the clones was the same age as the Spartan, they managed growth acceleration.
If someone has an answer as to why not, go ahead and fill me in.The clones they replaced the Spartans with were brain dead. Flash-cloning whole bodies is super-expensive, resource intensive, and highly illegal.
Even if they regular-cloned them, it would still take years and probably trillions of dollars to get a significant, trained force. Highly impractical. Better just to use already grown and functioning men as soldiers.
Also, they'd be sued by the Kaminoins, who, may I remind you, have Jedi lawyers.
