travel purposes: when it would be easier in terms of paperwork to declare a deceased body than get a visa when traveling internationally

when they fall ill and resurrection is cheaper than the necessary medical treatment

the odd punishment— when those around MEV who don’t respond to their own punishment should misbehave

resurrection errors— when MEV returns with too much memory or previous character, they are immediately dismissed and resurrected to a more appropriate state (note— this is often a Code Gray and requires multiple staff members to hold them down before treatment is redone)

a member of the draagoshka elite has booked either the Black Parade or the MEV personally for a “full-experience” performance, in which they get to dispose of MEV themselves (these cases often result in a “total-ing” or complete write-off of this current iteration of MEV)

miscellaneous or research reasons—often cited by MOAT staff— elaboration is not required on paper, but approval from a supervisory authority is required for these situations

times they deem it appropriate to clone MEV
