While Mur's objective seems to destroy the
copies, we can't assume each Layer is thus a copy, and the original is "Layer0." The original must be Layer 5 because that's where the story continues, or it might be any other Layer. Point being: Destroy
all seven layers, and there's nothing left. All the Layers make up reality, destroying them thus destroys reality (at least, from what I understand.)
I agree, although the theory only focus on a practical way. The fact of "destroying" the submachine only serves as an example of what can layers do if melted. Actually the example is not "destroying the layers", it's "destroying the subnet". If, as you say, Layer 5 is reality, or the original, the whole world is in that layer, and we can't destroy the whole layer 5.
Then the example will be:
1) Destroying the subnet in layer 5.
2) When destroying it, make sure the other 6 layers coexist with 5 so that our actions in layer 5 have repercussion in the remaining 6.
3) Finally, the subnet that affects the world (5) is destroyed. The world remains intact.
But as I say, "destroy" is a very vulgar and unprecise word for the concepts of subnet.
