      Wha-ha-ha?.. t.

    I dunno, clones can think creatively. You will find them immensely superior to droids.

    humanoid soldiers offer a more resilient alternative, with greater restraint and precision. Robots do not suffer from fatigue or fear and can operate continuously in extreme conditions while immune from radiation, chemicals, or biological agents.

    Slop soldiers. They probably learned their combat from Mike Tyson, Logan Paul, and Connor McGregor. 🙃
