Because they only clone successful attractions
That doesn’t tell the whole reasoning. Yes, when an original attraction is met with enthusiasm cloning becomes an easy choice
But what about the original ones which didn’t get huge appreciation but later cloned up anyway.
Soarin at DCA opened without a great following but became a monster hit in Epcot; same with Rat in Disney Studios Paris but yet replicated for Epcot.
Ariel didn’t exactly make a splash in DCA but got cloned for Magic Kingdom only to get overwhelming mixed reviews..
And there must have been overlap in construction since the two openings came fairly close together
