Yes, after the duplication but before the door of the duplicating
chamber is opened John Clark may have a hunch that he (at this
point the personal pronoun is not ambiguous because although there
are 2 bodies they are identical so there is still just one John
Clark) will see Moscow when the door is opened and make a bet. One
of the John Clarks will win the bet and one will not; it can never
be determined if "he" won the bet because as soon as the door was
opened the 2 bodies were no longer identical, they had different
memories, so that personal pronoun becomes ambiguous.
That contradict the fact that you have agreed that both copies are the
Helsinki guy. There is no ambiguity, you are both guys. But both guys
have incompatible first person experiences, and that explains the
prediction "W v M", as explained with all detail before (reread the
last posts).
It looks you change your mind on this, but then it looks you say
whatever needed to deny the obvious.
