I would argue that consciousness doesn't need to survive death to be brought back. In much the same way that turning off a computer wouldn't prevent you from turning it back on.
P.S. I have nothing but respect for the story you shared; and understand the arguments you are making so far.
HELLO MCFLY, try smashing your computer into a million pieces then try to turn it back on.
That is permanent death. That means, a majority cells in your brain, are damaged beyond all repair and once that damage is beyond repair you don't come back from that.
"Brain death" can still leave you alive, but your consciousness is no longer you. You at that point are merely a shell. It would be like removing your cpu and hard drive and still have the "on light" work. It would no longer be a usable computer. And try removing a fan from over a cpu, it will fry in seconds.
You are still confusing lack of finding vital sings as being death. No, you can still be plugged in, and seem off, but not be off. Permanent "OFF" is when the computer "your brain" is unplugged long enough to cause irreversible death. When too much damage beyond repair happens to the cells in your brain, you don't come back from that.
"Should be dead" but not dead, is a misdiagnosis, or lack of understanding of conditions if you don't die.
If your computer turns back on, that means it was still in the condition of having the ability to be turned back on. But a human brain isn't a a non human computer, it is biological life. Very powerful biology sure, but human brains are not non living mechanical things like a non human computer. A human will not come back to life if their brain is starved long enough of oxygen and blood flow. They most certainly will not come back if they are decapitated or blow their brains out.
If you come out of a brain health event, you were never past the point of no return. If you go past the point of no return, meaning too much damage due to lack of oxygen and blood flow, and pass that point of no return, you are not going to come back from that. Your consciousness dies with your brain at that point.
