When I say “me” here, I mean my consciousness, the one I’m experiencing right here right now in this locality. So I think it’s your OTOH statement that would be relevant. I read from your post the reasonable point that it’s a presumably impossible paradox that any exact duplicate of me would be tortured while I am not, because then it wouldn’t be my exact duplicate. But presumably by the same big universe logic, 10^(10^29) light years away (or closer) something that is otherwise an exact duplicate of me IS being tortured. Sucks to be that guy! :P
