Well perhaps they meant this was the last Weyoun that wasn't going to be crazy in this particular Alpha quadrant cloning facility. If you keep making copies of a copy, eventually, you'll end up with a copy with not all the pieces. Although I guess you could argue that Weyoun was already crazy.

*nods at Vanguard* That's the exact point I bring out in a piece of fanfiction I'm writing...or at least trying to *L* Just like in some TNG eppy at one point, where they had all those genetically engineered people living in that biodome, and they wanted Wesley and some of the other Enterprise children to replenish their clones. The DNA that they had to work with had degenerated so much that it was basically unstable. Surely that would follow for the Weyoun, Keevan, etc, clones as well.

Hmm...actually...on seeing the show again, this time with the Closed Captioning on, the Founder says : I really wish you hadn't have done that. That was Weyoun's last clone.
maybe they had a finite number of clones made, ready to be activated or something when the cloning chamber was destroyed or whatever happened to it. *SIGHS* How am I going to make this work with my story...? Doh... *going to have to brainstorm on this a bit*

Perhaps they make a practice of making only so many copies of a single individual, then stop, to avoid the degradation that happens to successive copies?
And (almost non-sequitor) perhaps the original (master copy) Weyoun (and other vortæ, for that matter) is kept in stasis somewhere in the Gamma quadrant, in case they want to make more high-quality copies?
Just conjecture...?
