If I we're to create a transporter like device, I'd have it copy my brain to a robot at the other end. Then when the robot was done I'd have the new memories added to my own.
I'd possibly add some sort of death expectation to the robot mind too so it didn't seek to continue living, maybe just an acceptance that it'd be used as a tool by possibly thousands of people.
Might cause other problems, but at no point is the human broken into atoms.
Both can be good, but used carefully. The 2nd and 3rd season of the Orville had some of the best space action I've ever seen and gave me the same feelings as the dominion war in ds9. Discovery never had any space action that got me remotely excited.
But drumhead, measure of a man etc are crazy good too.
