Which shouldn't matter to us if we arrive with our memories and
personalities intact.

Except for the theological question of whether such teleportation
likewise teleports the soul.

Don't confuse teleportation with another sci-fi device of replication
followed by destruction of the original.

The juxtaposition of "teleportation" and "ultrafast" in the Subject
might lead readers to suspect the possibility of superluminal
communication.  I believe even adherents of the Copenhagen
Interpretation disallow this because it implies causality violation
under Special Relativity.
