I disagree with your answer; I don't think Batty saw himself as human at the end, or felt much kinship with human beings, or had ever thought of himself as inferior to them. I think he saw human beings as petty creatures who couldn't even appreciate what he was, and what a terrible loss his death would be ("I've seen things you people wouldn't believe..."). But miserable little Deckard was the only one left he could tell about it. | |
