Well, while it is possible to duplicate SOME of the tracks, you can't reproduce all of them because many of the tracks were written with micro-stepping. It is possible to step 8-10 times between the normal track step distance. When a drive is reading an alignment disk, it expects to find the proper track and the micro-stepped tracks that are around a "normal" track can be picked up when the drive head is out of alignment.
