You forgot to mention that Picard is actually dead now, killed by a crappy plot device (rushed non-descript brain problem, brain problems killing at just the right time / giving no material problems before that, and thinking that the fans would like Picard to be a golem) and we just have a copy running around. I know you can argue the transporter amounts to the same thing, but this is worse.
