No, I understand that, I'm saying that, while Copy B is not the same person as Copy A, he IS the same person as Copy A was before being copied, at least as much as Copy A is.

What would you do if you discovered you were Copy B in such an experiment? Because presumably he would do the same thing.

I don't contest your first paragraph.

Regarding your question: I don't know. Probably update my understanding of this subject.
