​Oh that makes things much clearer! You refers to the you that think's he's you, but 1-yous refers to the 1-yous that thinks he's 1- yous. Thanks a lot.​

I was referring to the previous explanations. You are doing rhetorical tricks only.

​John Clark has no need to precisely define the word "you" because John Clark has no need to use that or any other personal pronoun to explain John Clark's ideas but instead can simply​ ​use a proper noun. By contrast Bruno Marchal can not do that because the inherent ambiguity the word "you" will always have if a "you" duplicating machine is going to be used​ ​on "you"​ ​in the future is the only thing that disguises the underlying​ ​silliness of Bruno Marchal's ideas.​


I can do that, I did do that, and you did not answer. I let you find the post.
