For the stated experiement, many of the points raised are not
relevant. The question asked
about the situation immediately after a perfect copy is
produced, not ongoing over time.
So comments about duplicating experience from that point on have
no bearing. The question,
as I understand it, boils down to is there any difference
between the original and a *perfect*
copy. The answer, by definition, must be no. Whether we can
produce such a copy or not
is another question entirely also.
