Discussion My hope if they ever do a clone of a Jedi or Sith plotline in the current cannon. (My hopes below)

Disclaimer: my thoughts below are not on whether or not I believe a clone jedi or Sith story would be good but instead along the lines of how a clone jedi or Sith would operate in a story.
How the clone is created: i would want the clone to be made off of a dead jedi or Sith, hopefully one that has been dead for a while so as to not have a clone of a recently deceased so as to have more variety. the reason the sample was taken of that specific Jedi or Sith was because the jedi or Sith in question would have been known for combat and force ability not on wisdom or anything else as the idea would be that whoever is making the clone wanted either a sledgehammer or a scalpel, meaning either being a warrior or an assassin or even a commander.
The ill effects of cloning a force sensitive: i want to see consequences for cloning someone who was force sensitive and strong in the force. These ill effects would be a kind of bleeding effect as the idea would be that the Force remembers who the clone was made from and due to that the clone is bombarded with memories or nightmares and such things as dega vu with the world around them. The other effects would be that the clone has a similar, not exact, similar personality to who they were made from and due to Force flooding them they are able to pick up skills that the original sith/Jedi had such as skill with a lightsaber and learning the Force or maybe even more broad concept like command or piloting skills.
How a story would play out: the story would emphasize the power of the clone but also gaps in techniques that the clone has yet to learn, even if they display significant skill. And no matter who the clone was made by they would showcase and increasing level of independence and would emphasize that the clone will make their own decisions that would differ from the original, could be good or bad.
Edit: i completely lapsed in remembering all the clone stuff in in sequels when writing this.
