Ah. Now it makes sense to me why they would even get a replicant in the 
first place. Because it's a dangerous job where you don't want to risk a human.

On the other hand, I'm sure there are tons of people doing dangerous jobs in 
that world. And Decker's bosses all treat him like a person. If the idea was 
to hide the fact that replicants were being made on Earth, telling half the 
police department that they're working with a replicant sounds like a bad idea.

It took it more to mean that we all have sell-by dates, and that you take 
what happiness you can while you live, because you never know when you'll 
die, and that Rachel would die in her own few years. (Otherwise, why work on 
a technology to make replicants think they're human, when you could just let 
them grow their own memories?)
