You’d think they’d be looking for non-organic options. Go full cybernetic, shed their mortal, diseased bodies entirely.

Or do cloning. If their own DNA is too messed up by the Phage then pick a non-Vidiian species that's particularly compatible and start running off copies to harvest. Apparently killing clones is fine by the Federation, paragons of moral virtue that they are, so this should be an acceptable solution.

And yet I’m DS9 Bashir says that murdering a clone of yourself is still murder. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But maybe that was Bayorian law.

If I had to make it make sense, Riker killing those clones might have been different because the clones weren't "awakened" yet.

That works. So it’s abortion not murder.

The cut off is if the clone is aware, long as it’s a vegetable in a tube you can do whatever
