This proposal sounded logical, yet it brought up a philosophical question for
me.
What exactly is "profit" to an upload, (if you mean the kind of transhuman

Why would an upload feel the need to colonize and explore outerspace? Or any
physical space for that matter? Or am I missing some major facet of this....
