I would not want to kill myself if my distant-future self wanted to die or wanted me to die immediately. I think it is much more likely that I would accidentally self-modify in a manner I wouldn't like if I reflected on it now and that would lead to wishing for death than that my current self with additional knowledge would chose death over omnipotence.
I don't think the factual question "would I be happier dying right now" would necessarily be the one that decided the policy question of "will I chose do die" for both me and my future self, because we could each care about different things.
And with a warning "The way things are going, you'll end up wanting to die." I could change my wishes and maybe get something better.
"Does my current utility function contain a global maximum at the case where I wish for and receive death right now?" is a really scary question to ask a genie.
I would prefer "I wish for the world to changed in such a manner as my present actual utility function, (explicitly distinct from my perception of my utility function), is at the global maximum possible without altering my present actual utility function."
Or in colloquial language "Give me what I want, not what I think I want."
