It's interesting to see this drive, for transplanting one's consciousness or whatever into another medium according to the notion that doing so would constitute some form of immortality and that thereby something desirable would be achieved or become possible, compromise on the medium. To give up that the medium could be an entirely synthetic structure in favor of it being a biological one seems to illustrate that sidestepping of biological rules is in fact a temporary extravagance and inherently parasitic.
