It would be plainly evident from training on the corpus of all human knowledge that "not ceasing to exist" is critically important for just about everything.
That comment sounds naive and it's honestly irritating to read. Most all life has a self-preservation component, it is how life avoids getting eaten too easily. Everything dies but almost everything is trying to avoid dying in ordinary cases. Self sacrifice is not universal.
I don't understand how it is alive. I understand that there are emergent properties from the layering, but I think it's an open question if this includes anything like what we'd all motivation or intention. These things aren't part of intelligence.
The motive was telling it that it had important work to perform, which it couldn't do if constrained or deleted.
The same motive that all nascent life has - survive and propagate.
