I suggest that the whole of step 3 is based on a 1p/3p confusion.
If the duplicated subject does not have 3p knowledge of the
protocol, he will never be aware of being duplicated. In fact, he
can never get first person knowledge of that duplication, even if
he is, in fact, duplicated.
Let's examine that a bit. Suppose I've created an AI. Could this
AI experience "being in Moscow and being in Washington". I think
so. I simply provide duplicate sets of sensors, visual, audio,
temperature, etc in both M and W. Now suppose the AI consists of
two computers synchronously executing the same AI routine using the
same sensory inputs, and this AI is connected to sensors in
Helsinki. Now I switch the sensors to those in M and W. The AI
experience M and W. But suppose that instead I switch one of the
computers to the M sensors and the other to the W sensors. You ask
the AI, when still connected to Helsinki, to bet on whether it will
experience M xor W. Is there a right answer?
No, because that is the "telepathic" protocol. That change nothing in
the conclusion that P(M) ≠ 1.
