i remember reading something back in the 90s that something like that had been done on a primate (maybe it was a head transplant and not a brain transplant), and it only survived a few days or something. given that, not a lot of people were that excited about the prospect of getting new bodies every few days. maybe i’m misremembering.
I think most of that is just because it’s really tricky to get right though and there’s a lot of medical complications, not because it’s impossible for philosophical reasons.
I’m not disagreeing with you
