A robot meant to impersonate someone would probably fall into a Rotten Robotic Replacement, which doesn't always require the robot look like the person- but often the robot is made to look like the person they're replacing.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessI'd say it's an example if it displays human traits that are not in line with the person it's supposed to impersonate.
Like if it's meant to replace a Corrupt Corporate Executive, but the robot's conscience makes it start to donate his money to charity.
Ridiculously Human Robots is about robots who have human traits, even when they would have no real purpose to be designed to begin with (such as emotions). But what about a robot meant to impersonate someone? The human traits are then justified, as the robot has to react exactly as the impersonated person would. Is it still an example, then?
