I agree that I am expanding upon the metaphor that the brain is a computer and an individual is a program. It's no more a delusion then any other metaphor which only inaccurately describes the world. All metaphors can cause poor understanding when taken to far, although I agree this specific one is often used to jump to poor conclusions.

I'm not convinced that it is impossible to transplant consciousness from meatspace to VR. Am I missing some prerequisite reading to form this conclusion?
