> Thought experiment: if you could take your dream vacation at no expense but would have no memories or photos/videos of the trip would you do it? Of course I would, there is no downside to it. Even if I have no memory of it after the fact, the goodness that would result from such a vacation would remain with me (and hopefully affect me in a positive way). Plus, I get to do it all over again; because, if I had no memory, it never happened! Win-win ;-)

The downside is time spent without any memories.

If I could snap my fingers and appear 7 days in the future, my body having experienced a vacation but my mind having no recollection what did I really gain? And at what cost?

>what did I really gain? This is what I was trying to say: gain being the good effects dream vacation had on your mental health. Cost, of course is time, but you'd pay that anyways.
