I'm not sure that changes the logic, though. Why do I prefer that the power not be turned off to introverted-me, if not because I consider executing introverted-me valuable?
I was drawing a distinction between "I consider introverted-me valuable and worthy of avoiding execution" and "this computational process is valuable entirely for its own sake". Which, on reflection, may not be much of a distinction.
