I really doubt that it is possible to anticipate *all* experiences.
I'm sure most of us would choose to integrate in any and all "nice"
experiences of our clones and tend to filter any "bad" experiences.

I have no doubt that my clones may have some bad experiences.
Such is life! But *I* don't want them in my experiential framework
other than from the perspective of life threatening situations that
I should avoid (i.e. abstractions).

So one has some interesting reintegration criteria. *Don't* give
me the raw unprocessed experiences (yes, I know my clones had them
but I don't want them) -- instead give me the conclusions they would
have reached had they survived such experiences. (Actually the
conclusions they might reach not having survived such experiences
might be more useful.)

Here is an interesting question regarding forking, etc.

Do you trust yourself?
