You know, if Quaritch had stayed dead for Avatar 2 Jake would be dead. and not just him either.
So here's a list of people who'd be dead if Quaritch hadn't gotten Cloned Ex Machina.
1. Jake Sully.
Wainfleet (A soldier who got Clone Ex Machina) would’ve killed him If Quaritch hadn’t stoped him. Saying that if they killed Jake at the time the Metkayina would attack.
2 The Sully Kids
A couple of them would probably die cause who needs hostages to negotiate with if the target is dead. Some of them will probably be saved by the Tulkun. But some won't
3. Neytiri
She’d might die in an attempt to either save her kids and Jake. Or avenge them.
4. The ocean tribes
Let’s be real here the only reason none of the ocean tribe members got killed was because Spider guilt tripped Quaritch into making a compromise. A shitty compromise since so many tribes lost their home, but at least with Quaritch they were alive.
5. The Omatikaya
Without Quaritch to stop them they would’ve gotten the Omatikaya’s location from Spider eventually. Then we’ve have a destruction of hometree 2.0 (with caves instead of trees.)
6. The Metkayina
They’d attack when Jake gets killed. And a lot of them will die without Jake telling them to go into the water to avoid bullets.
7. Spider
I'm putting him separately from the Sully kids cause I think they'd try to keep him alive and with them just for the Pr. Cause like, they are killing a bunch of people to take their land. But with him they could probably spin as "necessary evil" to rescue a child who got kidnaped or something. Still, he might die tho. He'd definitely try to defend the Sullys, and that might get him killed.
