look, we spent the money on this thing, so you're going to use it... no, you can't have 4 battle replicants, have you seen your overtime budget? maybe if you spent as much time finding replicants as you did making excuses, we'd be getting somewhere.

But why would the police force even develop a weak "human" replicant like Deckard in the first place, since they have the option of superhuman replicants?

if batty is battle droid, why he look like rutger hauer and not tetsuo iron man?

lol if you read some of the interviews with David Peoples, one of the Blade Runner scriptwriters, the army in his movie Soldier is supposed to be replicants. They never really spell that out in the movie and they just seem like brainwashed military drones, but they reference some of the same battles as Roy Batty and there's a junked BR spinner vehicle in the background on a shot.
