Agreed.

 mad
scientist who was working on a secret government project wound up duplicate= d
980 million times.  Minus at least one for the commando he pissed off momen= t
before getting duplicated.

Although the normal transporter likely has built-in failsafes to prevent it=
 from creating a duplicate
Riker (afterall, where did the matter come from to do that), it should
cert= ainly be possible to design
a transporter that can replicate a person and create a perfect, living
copy= .  I've done it myself.
That forms a big part of "Traitor's Son," and a part of the
upcoming "Confl= uence" as well.
