    And yet you have a vested interest in your continued survival. If you stepped into a transporter and it failed to disassemble you on departure, you would very much protest if a maintenance technician attempted manual disassembly

      Lol, love the “manual disassembly” terminology.

      That’s not a philosophical objection, though, it’s just instinct. If the transporter made a copy of me, the copy would also very much object to this proposed method of error correction.
