Multiple clones.

So i was wondering why having multiple clones in the same station would be a bad idea.
Sure, being allowed to change implants at will, according to the ship you are going to fly, would not be that funny, i know, but people are doing that already, by having several clones in different stations in the same system or 1/2 jumps away.
Maybe limiting the clones in the same station to 2 or 3?
I see it as a way to encourage people to pvp more, i could be wrong but please be aware that i'm not asking for an easier game, i'm not asking for anything actually, i'm here mainly to hear what do you think about it.
Cheers.

edit:
i imagine walking in station in a room that looks something like this :)

I'm assuming you're asking because someone told you it was a bad idea. They probably told you this because there is a game mechanic that can cause a jump clone (and its implants) to be destroyed.

As it stands you can have 2, and jump from one to the other you just cant jump out and leave two clones at station.

Tell me again about how every playstyle you dont engage in "doesn't require any effort" and everyone who does it needs to die in a fire. Be sure to mention about how you tried it once but it was too easy/boring/ethnic-homophobic slur.

Ever watched movies where clones of someone kill each other because there can only be one? I'm guessing it has something to do with that in combination with the fact that your clone is locked in a CQ when he is on station and at other times he is in a bigass ship.
