It was basically Ridley Scott going "I wrote Deckard as a replicant, in my vision he is a replicant, nobody should ever mistake him for anything but a replicant" and taking his ball and running home. I think the movie is better when the seed of doubt is planted in the viewer's mind as to whether he's a replicant or not, but with no direct evidence either way. I think the film reads better if Deckard is human though. A man is sent after superior beings to be repeatedly broken and battered by them, his life put on the line in servitude for a bureau that doesn't care about him. Yeah, the replicants have a limited lifespan but at least they've "seen things you people wouldn't believe", and human beings are just as much worker drones as the replicants are in the society of Blade Runner. Plus, why would a replicant with the limitations and emotional responses of a regular human be sent after emotionless killing machines? Why wouldn't they make a Deckard who was as fast and strong as Roy Batty? Deckard doesn't even "beat" Roy in the end, Roy Batty just lays down and dies on his own terms because he's too strong, too intelligent and too quick for Deckard.
