This is the same reason I feel like peoples ideas of being “uploaded to the Matrix” are just as flawed. All of the same talking points but with a digital output. Being uploaded means death because my consciousness will cease to exist and simply be emulated by a computer after.

The only one who gain the benefit of me uploading is everyone but myself.

That one I can almost see happening but not full 'upload' style. It would have to be gradual in like a Ship of Theseus' style where the parts that make you 'you' are gradually replaced with digital equivalents.
