"You can get your body almost completely destroyed and it will still be the same you" Actually, it won't be the same "you". Your feelings and likely actions can provably be affected by whether you are standing or sitting, or holding a pencil in your teeth or balancing it on your upper lip. Obviously your self is more sensitive to brain changes (at least in some parts of your brain) than body changes, but that's just a matter of degree rather than some kind of imaginary hard line between mind and body or between "me" and "my meat suit". Looking at it a different way I'm saying that there are more useful concepts than this distinction, that lead to more successful outcomes.
