Tyrell has implanted false memories into Rachael's mind in order to exercise more control over her. Rachael is the most sophisticated design of replicant - because she does not know that she is one. They're Tyrell's niece's." Rick Deckard, 00:33:22 Those aren't your memories, they're somebody else's. When he realizes that he cannot prolong his life, he laments to Deckard that all his memories and experiences will be lost like "tears in the rain." Although Chew is the manufacturer of Batty's eyes, and Tyrell is the person who has given Batty his mind and body - it is what Batty has done with these tools that have allowed him to transcend the mantle of "machine", and what fuels his desire to hold onto his life. This line also connects to Roy Batty's last words. These eyes are the doorways that allow his experiences to inform his emotional maturation.

In the end, though, Tyrell's commodification of these near-human beings comes back to bite him when Roy Batty, indignant at his limited lifespan, kills his creator. The fact that the designers were aware of this possibility makes the moral implications of Replicant creation even more questionable.

The Replicants' 4-year lifespan was a cautionary action on the part of the genetic designers - who were aware of the dangers involved in creating an android that was "more human than human". "Four-year lifespan." Inspector Bryant and Rick Deckard, 00:15:05 "The designers reckoned after a few years, they might develop their own emotional responses.
