I think SOMA made it pretty clear we're never uploading jack shit, at best we're making a copy for whom it'll feel as if they've been uploaded, but the original remains behind as well.

That ending screwed with my mind. Existential horror at it's finest!

I was just annoyed at the protagonist for expecting anything else. The exact same thing already happened 2 times to the protagonist (initial copy at beginning of the game, then move to the other suit). Plus it's reinforced in the found notes for good measure. So by the ending, the player knows exactly what's going to happen and so should the protagonist, but somehow he's surprised.

Yeah true. But Catherine said it perfectly at the end. Something like "you still don't get it? What did you expect?". The fact that one of his consciousness remains down in the abyss was kind of frightening. All by himself.

Two actually. The one from the before the suit change is also left there, and Catherine said he will wake up in a day or two. Maybe they can meet up actually.

You didn't kill old suit you? Cruel.
