Nothing, if your definition of a copy is sufficiently general :-)
Am I understanding you right that you believe in something like a computational theory of identity and think there’s some sort of bound on how complex something we’d attribute moral patienthood or interestingness to can get? I agree with the former, but don’t see much reason for believing the latter.
I have no idea if there is such a bound. I will never have any idea if there is such a bound, and I suspect that neither will any entity in this universe. Given that fact, I’d rather make the assumption that doesn’t turn me stupid when Pascal’s Wager comes up.
