True. In fact, in the example I used (from Accelerando) the main character does sends one copy of herself on the trip, and leaves one copy home. When she returns, she finds that the one that stayed home is in financial ruin (partly because of the expedition's expense) and current laws make her returning copy equally culpable for the debt.
