I know. And I hit post once. Maybe it is my freaky numb fingers.
Activation of that gene would make your life a horrifying experience. I assure you.
Ex.
What would make that limb grow back to the preexisting state of ability and size?
If someone cut off your leg, would you automaticaly regrow a baby leg and then wait 15-18 years till that leg achieved a satisfying level of adaptation to the rest of your body?
Waht's worse, if someone decapitated you, would you have to go back through your infantile stages of life as your brain re-develops?
What if you were completely dismembered and started growing through your life cycles from every detached part.
What a wonderous monstrosity you would make.
it could theoretically work, but not with the current technology. currently, cloning technology is flawed, slow and inneficient. also the breeding of clones for a solely miltary purpose would trigger a huge reaction from human rights groups about the action being inhumane. due to the possible backlash from the population about the human rights issue, i would only expect it to happen after some sort of hostile takeover and an abolishment of the constitution or bill of rights, in some sort of new world order scenario.
