[Star Wars Legends: Hand of Thrawn] What would have happened if Thrawn's clone had successfully been created?

Would he have joined the Empire in its current state?  Would he have been successful in bringing them back to power?  How different would the Yuuzhan Vong war have been?

The clone would not have been Thrawn for the same reason that every single clone trooper was not the best bounty hunter in the galaxy. How would it have been educated? Flash-learning has been established numerous times as no substitute for quality training and experience. In all likelihood, Thrawn intended his clone to be a figurehead creating the impression that he had never truly died, while Voss Parck and his other subordinates did the real work.
