what if when you dowloaded your consciousness the "physical" you died instantly? An immortal digitized copy of yourself is made, but from the perspective of the "you" that pressed the download button, it's an instant cut-to-black. The end. Would you still do it? (same deal with teleportation, ala The Prestige).

if i die i'll be dead so won't give a poo poo so people can laugh at my dick or whatever while they carve me up to make my corpse be useful instead of just rotting in the ground

if you dont get a coffin and dont pump yourself full of formaldehyde your corpse is very useful underground
