 If this was normal biology then yes, it would be over. But this is a special case.

 Fraternal twins are due to two separate eggs being fertilized at the same time, which can cause genetic disparities in the recessive/dominant genes. This ectobiology is based around combining the DNA of two people, outputting the code and cloning babies based on the code. Where the biological method has room for random variation this method is based on the exact same sequence.

 I will concede that due to XY chromosome stuff their codes can't be identical, so the machine must have ensured a male and female offspring, but they are quite clearly different and more related than textbook fraternal siblings.

Not really, normal siblings are the result of the same mixture of genes, it's just that different parts are used in each case. Infact, I would say that Jade and John are LESS related then normal siblings because the portions of the slime that made them are probably non-intersecting.

The kids are definitely not twins. They mixed two people's genetic material twice, like what normally happens when you have two children separately.

Yes they mixed it twice, once for John and Jade, and once for Dave and Rose.

I think it's a vastly amusing thought that elephants are so afraid of heights that when Dwarves invented the Z-axis, they couldn't bear to face dwarves in combat anymore.

They're not twins; Don't dave and Rose, for example, have different eye color?
And different genders is, I believe, actually part of the genes. they're not genetic twins.

What sort of experience has he had with bullets making Goatdad hungrier?

He told Goatdad to eat lead. The results were unintended.

About the twin thing. They are twins. They were born the same day. From the same "parents". Period.

Right up until attack of the Goatdad.

Which I have an inkling about. Mayhaps Jade has exaggerated the danger factor of Goatdad?
