            The point, as I see it, is that if, after duplication,
            the copies can communicate, and they agree that they
            both have psychological continuity with the original
            person, and that, consequently, the original person saw
            both cities/results.


        If they could communicate after duplication, they would
        agree that they both have psychological continuity with the
        original person, but why would they agree that the original
        person saw both cities or results? This seems to be the same
        point if dispute. I would feel exactly the same whether my
        copy was in the next street, the next galaxy or the next
        universe, and I would have exactly the same expectations
        about the future if I were to undergo duplication again.


        That is only the case if you choose to ignore a large part of
        the evidence available to you. In exclusively concentrating
        on a closed 1p view after duplication, you are inconsistent
        with the fact that you used 3p information about the protocol
        before duplication. Why refuse to use this 3p (or 2p if you
        talk to you doppelganger in person) information after
        duplication?


    By what process would the 3p information make me feel differently
    about myself?

    I don't know. How does any knowledge from outside make you feel
    differently about yourself?


New information may shock me, but it can't literally make me feel like a different person - replace my past with a different past, make me think that I'm in a different place doing different things with a different identity.

Even if the information was that you have a duplicate from which you have only momentarily been separated and you will soon be merged again?
