Re:Simulate Life (Score 1)

I haven't read the book but fell this comment can be added to: What if we do come up with the perfect rabbit simulation? Where would lie the justification in using it, were it indistinguishable from the "real" thing. Wouldn't we just have another rabbit? I'm sure such simulations will have their uses. But why simulate when we have thousands of instances already running perfectly, and without being told how to?
