I see what you are getting at, but I don't think that's the same.

Nod's machine is suicide. Killing an atomic clone would be murder (or abortion, depending on how/when it was done). I would not support killing an atomic clone who was created by accident either. I support the right of an individual to "die" in whatever context they choose. I don't support murder.
