Is this a meaningful comparison? How I read the preceding bit, the way in which you're both annihilated and preserved is simply that you die but the information required to reconstruct you remains.
That's not at all like the way in which Shrödinger's cat is both alive and dead, which doesn't really have anything to do with death.
