Well, the very logic of the hypothesis dictates that *both* continuations inherit the first personal perspective of the original and this will always be single-valued. But, as you said, there is an ineliminable ambiguity because neither can record anything first-personal that incorporates that third-personal doubleness. IOW it always seems as if there is only one of me (1p) even in the case that I know there are two of me (3p). Do you agree that this ambiguity is sufficient for step 3 to go through?
