The thing is that you're absolutely right and I never meant to dispute what you're saying. However just like the teleporter that deconstructs you and reconstructs you somewhere else, even though the person that comes out is entirely identical to the person that went in and will also feel as such (i.e. nothing went wrong from their perspective), the person that went in experienced death, and will never actually get to be the person that came out. Basically, you killed someone, then restored a snapshot of when they were still alive. The one you killed will never know of the snapshot or get to be that snapshot, while the snapshot will live on exactly as the original would have. I don't want to be that original who never gets to see the snapshot. Yes, the snapshot will inherit everything that makes me "me", and yes the snapshot will get to live life normally. But I die.
