It's not anything ephemeral or non-physical you brainlet, it's a matter of functional continuity of a integral complex system that is a singular brain.
Just because you could make an exact physical copy of some brain and then neutralize the original doesn't mean the new copy is the same person with the same continuation of consciousness. They'd be identical, sure, but not the same consciousness.
