Yeah, I've been thinking about that a lot. There's very, very little logic in any of the way the Triceratons were created, but especially the cloning bits. Which would come with a lot of problems with the major lack in genetic diversity. If an extreme disease comes their way, they are royally screwed, because they wouldn't have the genetic resistance to fight it. Not to compare them to plants, but that's why we've struggled with banana crops. Not only once, but now a second time.
And any self-respecting Utrom scientist should have known that. If they're capable of cloning fully sapient beings, then they should be capable of knowing how quickly an entire population sharing a single DNA background could crumble with the slightest common cold.
