New information on Minmatar attitudes to cloning & backups

Relevant to this discussion is a significant addition on the topic of the Voluval and Capsuleers to:

Voluval article

In the first place, this deals with the Midular article having and/or alluding to significant new information on the voluval and capsuleers that was not in the voluval article itself.

It also goes into this side of Minmatar views on cloning with special attention to the voluval at greater length than was practical or needed in the Karin Midular article. More clarity on the variety of viewpoints should be apparent.

A relevant paragraph in the Midular article has also been revised slightly for clarity:

The fact that Karin Midular was the last living Ray of Matar, and the first known for generations, has led some to believe that she chose to honor the tradition of one living body and spirit in part to avoid the paradox of a Midular clone body that would not have a Ray marking. While opinions differ on the legitimacy of reproducing voluval marks on clones, those of a conservative cast of mind within certain Matari traditions would see such a thing as an affront, as Midular the unifier would have known.

That’s the basics of this update. Will keep an eye out for feedback etc.
