I'd seen conjecture someplace (just fan rumination) that due to lacking their own memories, replicants could start to develop obsessions, compulsions and so on that would lead to fixation with such things. Trying to fill the space left inside them so to speak. It isn't some official thing, but it does fit fairly well, and seems quite a human drive. Everyone wants something to hold on to. Especially if you may be suffering from the type of existential angst that being a manufactured product, and a fugitive as a result would dump on you.
It's equally possible that's just the way Leon was, and is just a personal foible of his, and not really a big deal beyond that.
