Restoration is not replication—you will never end up with two Mona Lisas by restoring the original.
According to IIT, if you want to pursue the analogy, you do end up with two Mona Lisas.
The original, all of it's own individual instantiation and intrinsically actual content....and the restored mona lisa, with all of the same for itself. It doesn't actually matter that they occupy the same canvass any more than me standing in Mary Todds house makes me Lincoln.
- but your meat fairy isn't going to use the same canvass for your resurrection body at any rate.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
