This option is basically "It's best not to get too dependent on it"? That doesn't really make sense as an argument. There's no point in having something if you never use it for fear of being reliant on it in the future.

This opens up ethical issues related to involuntary cloning and treating clones as tools (which we're already somewhat doing with Annie). I'm also not sure it would be any better than using Best Girl and Companion Cube.
[X] "Both ideas are terrible. We should do our best to track down whatever is causing this and put a stop to it before we try to replace the world ecosystem."
I like Xicree's reasoning for this. Nilbog and Agnes Court seem like the "replace existing ecosystem with eldritch abominations" option. Panacea, Best Girl, and Companion Cube seem like good options for actually finding and curing the problem.
I've noticed every other update I want to recommend we include Tattletale in our plans. I guess you only miss what you've got when it's gone :x
If this is a recent thing, could it be a new Endbringer? Given Simurgh was killed recently, it seems like a possibility. Granted, it doesn't fit their MO (periodic attacks on important locations normal capes can fight), but it may be a reaction to Eidolon testing out more esoteric powers and wanting more of an intellectual challenge.
Also, it kind of fits as a progression.
Behemoth -> Small-area high-intensity damage.
Leviathan -> Medium/large-area medium-intensity damage.
Simurgh -> Strategic-area medium-intensity damage at a global scale.
?Gaia? -> Global-scale low-intensity damage.
They start off concentrating damage in one area and spread it out further with each new Endbringer.
Something to think about.
I don't think Amy knows TT is alive still. Caldron never told her about her.
