Definitely.
Olso the logic doesn't work, at least not with the later published, and saner, understanding of how the walktapi work. If I remember this correctly, the "spark of life" is in just one of the Walktapus bits when you hack one up. It will regenerate itself, but not into a score of walktapi, but just one.
The walktapi multiply by "mating". A walktapus (or two) "in heat" meet each other. They tear each other in bits, and from such a mating all the bits regenerate into new walktapi.
