If you're talking about Leibniz Identity of indiscernibles it most
certainly has NOT failed. If the original and the copy are identical then
exchanging there position will not make a observable difference to a
outside observer nor to the original nor to the copy. So Leibniz would
conclude that if objectively it makes no difference and subjectively it
makes no difference then exchanging the position of the original and the
copy just plain makes no difference.

SEE! Bruno Marchal is incapable of expressing ideas without pronouns with
no referent. Was "he" making a prediction about
the future of Bruno Marchal or about the future of Bruno Marchal the
Helsinki Man? If it's about Bruno Marchal then the correct prediction would
be Helsinki Moscow and Washington, if it's about Bruno Marchal the Helsinki
Man the correct prediction can only be Helsinki. But who cares about
predictions?

But "he" must admit "he" is NOT the only Bruno Marchal because "he" HAS
BEEN DUPLICATED! Bruno Marchal admits that "he" has been duplicated but
still insists on referring to "he" as if there were still only one, and
that's what makes the whole thing incoherent. And what on earth does a
prediction, correct or incorrect, have to do with a feeling of self
anyway?

And that is exactly the problem, traditionally duplicating chambers do not
exist so the poor little pronoun "you" doesn't have to worry about the
complications such machines generate, but to really study this issue and
move into the big leagues Bruno Marchal must worry about them.

OK, so far so good the use of "he" is causing no problems.

WHO THE HELL IS "HE"??
