Clone upgrades - remove them and replace with an implant slot and new implants

The lore for upgrading clones is silly and doesn't wash with jump clones and existing implants which can't be unplugged and placed into a new upgraded body.

Consider creating a new slot that requires hard-wired implants to help preserve s.p. on death. Every clone would need one btw.

Also, make them much cheaper.

Dislike this idea. Theres absolutely no improvement to the current system. Essentially you would be exchanging a clone for an implant and that is all. Also the lore is fine, there is nothing wrong with it.

Pretty much this. If you absolutely want to fix some inconsistency, alter the lore. It's a much more pragmatic solution to all such problems.

My preference would be to get rid of clone upgrades altogether.
