The duplicating machine cannot introduce a telepathic link which would be mandatory for having an experience of both cities at once, so that the candidate would write "I see W and M". That simply never happens, or computationalism is false.

It's easy to see that physics implies one cannot see both W and M at the same time,






It is easy by using physics + computationalism. But this requires the abandon of the brain-mind identity link, like in Everett QM and/or comp. It requires also the abandon of physicalism, and this requires the extraction of physics from arithmetical self-reference.


but I don't see how it follows from computationalism.

The two computations are made relatively independent. I think you are using this in physics to say that it is easy to see that physics implies we cannot see both cities at the same time.




Why is there spacetime localization?

Good question. Open problem. The shadow of a solution relies perhaps in a Temperley-Lieb algebra related to the projection operators belonging to a semantics of one of the arithmetical quantum logics.
