Retconning 2049 into that was.. Hard.

Personally I prefer the PKD book. It was more nuanced. But the aesthetic of the first film was just wondeful. If somebody had sold cold cathode flouro umbrellas when the movie came out they would have cleaned up.

After Deckard did an exemplary job, everyone liked it so much that they they replaced his entire cadre with simulacra.

Oh absolutely! Just recently bought a fake animal and pondered it. Love PKD for selling various angles on the same trip for decades; wonder if his OG exegesis can be read anywhere...
