For me, the main issue with cloning is that it inherently assumes that the cloned organism is way better than any potential organism you could get the ol' fashioned way. Like eg. people cloning their old pets are literally saying that their old pet was perfect and any other puppy/kitty couldn't match them.
Though it's a nice strategy to get a bunch of soldiers quickly
