I have another hypothetical question. Split brain no one knows if they are 2 consciousness vs 1 consciousness. So someone splits the corpus callosum. The person becomes 2 people. You then recombine them by repairing the corpus callosum. Lets call left side lefty and right side righty. A) Righty survives the fusion
B ) Lefty survives the fusion
C ) Neither survives
D) Both survive
You can survive with either half of your brain. Now what happens If transfer Lefty and Righty into 2 different bodies and decide to repair the missing hemisphere and corpus callosum half survives and you decide to repair the other half using futuristic technology. How is this different than the above example?
I am assuming continuity exists. Some people don't but I do. So only answer if you believe continuity exist and can answer according to criteria stated earlier while using real science.
Thanks
