Thousand+ Frozen Umbrella Members

A few questions about the vast army of Umbrella members frozen in the pods.

Were they all genetically enhanced or clones?

Were they all single adults, hardcore killers, no families or children among them?

Were they all dedicated members of Umbrella or just people who were driven by fear (being told the world would destroy itself within 80 years) and financially supported Umbrella without knowing what the secret project was? e.g. Were they told 'when the time comes, we will look after you' and when the outbreak began they were whisked away to safety i.e. frozen pods.

Moral question - Assuming they were not hardcore killers, did they all deserve to die? Was it an act of genocide to wipe out perhaps the best hope for the planet because, let's face it, 99.9 percent of the human race was already wiped out. It was already game over. Regardless of their ethics (ends justify the means) there must have been some good people among them, or at least their children would be good. Were all of their deaths justified?

Were all of their deaths justified?

Yes. The risk of going through them one by one to see who are the good guys is not worth it. Umbrella has to die for good.

Also if there were any good guys among them that should be saved, the onus was on Alicia and maybe the Red Queen to make a case about them. They didn't say *beep*

Did you not hear Alice's dialogue? It was the rich, powerful Umbrella workers. Obviously their not the greatest people if they are working for a corporation that tried wiping out mankind and creating the "End of the world."

Considering it only takes a few years for the earth to be 'cleansed' via the T-Virus, even the plot point that they were all cryogenically frozen is such utter ridiculous nonsense.

It would have been easier for them just to live in a series of 'Hives' around the world.

Final Chapter is a steaming pile of *beep*

Were they inside a protected nuclear bunker? Detonating a huge bomb right over their heads and destroying the city was certainly risky. Wonder if they did that just to make sure nobody thought twice about coming back to investigate.
