1) The density of jargon isn't over the line, but it does feel cluttered to the point I didn't find this a smooth read. It's a mistake we've all made where we w... |

I could be misunderstanding, but it seems to me you're describing something that is not only true, but is quite mundane: the fact that you can't perfectly predict the outcome of mental augmentation. T... |

What you’ve described oneguy is pattern theory. The confusion comes in the fact that continuity theorists believe they have to be continually active to be the same person.
