For research, IVF leftovers are used - there is no need for a perfect genetic match, and SCNT is a very time-consuming, expensive and unreliable process which may introduce flaws that confuse the research. If the cells were intended for therepy, then there may be a use for cloning, to get a precise genetic match. Depends on what you want to do with the cells afterwards.
