That's assuming your copies have individualism. Where I feel my copies would believe in the greater good. Almost all know the role they play to make my true version incredible.
And knowing myself well, one would absolutely rebel to have empathy for the "worker" versions, and find a middle ground. Maybe 4-day weekends and vacations once a year.
Maybe your awareness splits with each copy, so you go from an "I" to a "we." No such thing as a "master" copy then, just different organs of the same meta entity
That's how I see it! It's very Buddhist.
A lot of folks in the other comments see it as they're the "Person Prime", and all the clones are some lesser being. Which I don't see it that way.
