Alchemical Simulacrum: Cure Serious?

[Iorthol]

The alchemist discovery Alchemical Simulacrum allows you to create a lesser simulacrum that is a creature rather than an illusory construct.

My question is, since this is a creature and not a spell effect, does that mean you can heal it with magic like you could any other creature, or can it only be healed going through the expensive magical lab process?

My instincts are going with yes, it can be healed, because it's a creature, but I would like some feedback.

The Spell
The Discovery

No one ever has answers for the rules questions I have haha. They're always so obscure.

You could, y'know, give people more than an hour to respond, especially during off-peak hours.

The discovery is exactly the same as the spell, except where explicitly noted.
