Blackout-drunk me assumes that future experience will be still the same person. Your argumentation hinges on the idea that persons can be meaningfully merged preserving "selfness" continuity, as opposed to simple "kill copies and copy new memories back to original".
I think this generally depends on more general topic of whether you would consent for your meat brain to be destroyed after uploading accurate copy to computer? I definitely wouldn't, as I feel that would somehow kill my subjective experience. (copy would exist, but that wouldn't be me)
Perhaps it will be for the judge to decide what the sentence should look like.
