The same could be said of humans; In the end Barry Greenstein with his donations to charity to improve the lives of impoverished children and Hitler with his answer to the "Jewish Problem" both go that "never ending sleep" having no identity, & no memory - equals in sleep, equals in death.

But definitely NOT equals in life. Why do you insist that people live in the future and not in the present? Who cares what happens after we die? We should only be concerned with our life now and not worry about the fact we will all die and matter not.

The destination directs the travel.

If one wanted to go to Andorra, they would fly to Barcelona, Spain and then catch a train to Andorra.

However if one wanted to go to Lisbon, Portugal; one would fly to Madrid, Spain and catch another plane to Lisbon airport.

Different destinations, different paths.

Caesar & SDM had different paths, but ultimately faced the same destination - infinite unconsciousness, no memory, no identity.

Therefore one could argue the path you take before death is of no importance - all roads lead to "Rome" anyway. ("Rome" here being used to represent death - the "infinite unconsciousness")

Or, one could argue that the destination is of no importance- the journey is the only thing that "matters".
