Since you asked:

You appear to me to love the fine art of sophistry. I feel you'd rather
turn a clever phrase in defense of nonsense than seek the truth.

But getting back to your "equivalency of duplicates argument," (I don't
want to let this become another What's-Wrong-With-Lee thread), you
ignore the differences in the personalities of duplicates that must
arise after the time of duplication. As I and others have acknowledged,
there is a divergence not only in memory, but also in *personality*,
that occurs after copying. Those divergences make the original and
alleged copy into two distinct individuals.
