OK, i can see the logic of that. But this is the problem i have. The "memory implant" is new technology as Tyrell tells Deckard about Rachel. If it's so new, how could Deckard already have it and be released (armed) into the general population where replicants aren't allowed? Why doesn't Deckard have the strength and invulnerability to extremes of heat and cold like the others? Why wouldn't Gaff kill them both? It's his job after all.
I don't know. A whole theory based on a dream and an origami figure seems, to me, like grasping at straws.
