Corrected entry: Wallace is obsessed with obtaining the secret to making replicants able to procreate so he can dramatically increase production of replicants. Given he is depicted as already able to produce them in an adult form and can implant memories of events and skills, this doesn't make any sense. Apparently his process is so slow, inefficient and expensive that it would be more effective to raise and educate infant replicants into adulthood than it would be to make them as he currently does - but he also claims to have created millions of replicants who are widely used for cheap labor and who were disposable enough that he stabbed one to death to prove a point.

Correction: Wallace is limited by the finite resources to artificially produce replicants on the dying Earth. Being able to produce replicants through biological reproduction would effectively allow him to create replicants from nothing, just as humans are created. Being able to create replicants without expending any resources would allow production to explode, leading to Wallace's ultimate goal of further expanding colonization.
