gollark: All the people in the original universe continue to exist, in universe B.
gollark: If you instantaneously destroy universe A somehow after operating the drive, then everyone will always be in the "good" universe B where its users don't cease to exist suddenly.
gollark: So the drive can be seen as splitting the universe into two. One of the resulting universes ("A") has the drive's users removed. One of them ("B") has the drive's users in a different place.

gollark: Oh, wait, no, I misread your reply.
