Stathis, I don't subscribe to your assertion that a person after gradual
replacement of atoms in his brain is a copy.

Yes, I'm aware of that, and my question was, if I were to assert that
after gradual replacement of a certain proportion of atoms a person is
no longer the same person, what counterargument would you use?

You can't argue that it's false because you feel yourself to be the
same person despite atom replacement, since that argument also applies
in the case of process interruption.
