Put another way, you're talking about timeless immortality. I'm talking about real immortality.

You're talking about a different notion of immortality. As it ignores probability, it doesn't seem to capture the usual concept very well.

For sure, whatever kind of "immortality" it is it certainly isn't something I would tend to describe as "real"!
