Why is that? I would prefer a universe in which the
maximum amount of things are possible. Since
sentience is where the whole ball game is, I would
prefer that we have maximum degrees of freedom in what
we can do with that sentience (i.e I would rather have
the choice to upload or not to upload than no choice
at all). Wouldn't you?
