Identical twins aren't identical atom for atom. Their brains will have small differences. The teleporter I described would make you identical.

They wouldn't make teleporters like that anyways. If they did it'd be a much more TAKE YOUR ATOMS HERE TO THERE AND RECONFIGURE. It'd take a lot less energy then actually reconstructing you atom for atom and there'd be a lot less room for mistakes.

This. It'd cost way more to physically recreate someone rather than simply bending space or some shit. Maybe a field similar to those in Mass Effect (The Relays) whihc are theoretically possible.

Thought provocation time: would you be dead while they moved you?

If I understand it right, the moving would take almost literally no time at all, an infinitely tiny moment if not just instantaneous.

And I think it's likely that they would put you in a coma or something while the moving took place, because the experience of blinking and suddenly being in a different place can't be good for your mental health.
