Continuity, is the key. Like the ship of Theseus the ship was replaced bit by bit so was aware of bits being replaced bit by bit so it was the same ship. But if that ship was suddenly replaced as a whole then it wouldn’t be the same ship. It would be A copy of the original, thus not the same ship.

Is this not the same as a transporter?


If i had my consiouness And could validate through the process that I didn’t die or still aware I knew me was still me on the other side.
