I'm afraid I'm dead set against it if it means starting a potential human being
only to chop bits off it to repair another - however, tissue culture would be
another matter, if it could avoid this.

Yup. Maybe people with certain desirable traits could be cloned, but this is
IMO a very "iffy" idea - people tend to think that a clone will be identical
in terms of identical look and thought - however, this isn't so.
