No it is not. It is indeterminate, but no less ambiguous than
talking on my future in case I am proposed interesting job in bit
Washington and Moscow and I am hesitating about which one.
But it is less ambiguous in that "you" will experience both so there
is no choice for you to make.
Indeed, if it was a matter of choice, there would be no indeterminacy
with the duplication. The point is that my identity is as well defined
in the choice case as in the duplication case.
