i don't want to be controversial but.. am i the only one who never once thought CX-2 was Tech? i feel like they made it pretty obvious it wasn't.
'he talked like Tech' he literally just using big and fancy words like 'domicile' ???? that's just talking.
even just listening to his voice, that's just a regular clone's voice with a weird distortion over it. he sounds nothing like Tech does.
'we don't see a body' dude, that fall was ridiculously high. 'Hunter fell from pretty high too!' there was a slope to break his fall, that wasn't the case with Tech. it was a straight fall downwards.
even then, i feel like being brainwashed into fighting against your brothers is a fate worse than death anyway?? like, i'd rather Tech straight up died rather than him being CX-2.
not only because it'd be him going through torture, but that it would completely cheapen his death in the first place. he died saving his family, making sure they survived and were able to live. him being alive would make his sacrifice just way less heavy. not only that, but it's important for the group's development too. like Crosshair said-- 'clone force 99 died with Tech'.
of course, season 3 was flawed. even though it makes sense for the Batch to not talk about his death, it still could'be been handled better.
theorise all you want, I don't care but when the theory turns out to be false i don't think it's fair to call it 'bad writing' because it didn't happen.
