No, you're not the only one. Fukuyama’s take, cached version here, is fairly to-the-point. Having grown up on Twilight Zone, it's not too hard to see the ironic twist coming. As for transporters in Trek, they destroy the original and yes, there is signal degradation. Hence Bones’s wincing aversion, and ours.

I didn't think about the whole equal rights angle of it. Thanks for sharing!
