>>100220860Well, yes, for two reasons:
>1Consider the reality we are in now as the baseline reality. In order to move an object from this reality into another reality, some sort of translation must take place that allows whatever laws govern that reality to handle the incoming foreign object. This translation need not be bijective, so either things get lost in translation, or an attempt to store the 'original' information takes place and this might have unintended side effects.
The worst case scenario isn't even that someone can't be translated and thus can't enter the other reality, it's that the process of translating their existence causes major long-term damage to the target reality, the target of movement, the origin reality, or some combination of the above.
>2This is obviously exposition and is therefore as accurate as it needs to be for the plot to function, probably completely in this case.
