You're doubling down on this then?

(After I provided you with clear explanation and even diagrams of how my
definitions of empty individual are equivalent?)

Well there's not much I can offer you after that.

I addressed your concerns in my replies. It seems to me, but correct me if
I'm wrong, that you have only recently learned about open individualism and
then philosophy of personal identity.

I have been studying, thinking about, and writing about, this subject for
many years. If I have said something without sufficient explanation, I
apologize, and I encourage you to ask questions, rather than assume the
worst about me or my intentions. That's how people learn.
