Your atoms are being torn apart and the structure is being rebuilt somewhere else. That totally just sounds like you die. I wouldn’t want to go in there either.

Exactly.

Again though, if the technology were actually real, I would expect that there would be a laymen-friendly version of why it wasn't actually death that I'd be able to accept. I just haven't seen one in all the times I've had this discussion.
