I was going to post this earlier, but now especially since you’ve mentioned adding Tricks, and advanceable ICE… why not just do this in Tennin instead? I wouldn’t recommend running Merger any more, but everything else is fine. For your 7th point, you can just run Clones Aren’t People or Clone Retirement. Heck, we even have a whole thread discussing exactly this. It just seems like overall a better ID for what you’re trying to accomplish.
