If the stormtroopers are clones, why didn George Lucas have Temuera Morrison dub over their voices for the special DVD edition like he did for Boba Fett?

An understandable confusion, as it’s never explained in the movies: In Episodes 2-3 the troops are clone troopers, cloned from the DNA of Jango Fett (played by Temuera Morrison). Boba Fett is also an unaltered clone of Jango, raised as his son. In the DVD edition of The Empire Strikes Back, Temuera Morrison dubbed over the voice of Boba Fett to help tie in the original trilogy to the new one. In episodes 4-6 there are also Galactic Imperial troopers (now known as Stormtroopers). The reason that Temuera Morrison doesn’t provide the voice is because, as the years went on, the Emperor disbanded Clone squads and started accepting and drafting regular human recruits. While there are still some clone units scattered throughout the galaxy, they are mostly obsolete.
