You have a perfect twin right down to the molecule (you both have always experienced the exact same things). Some horrible new world order passes a "no twin" law, so one of you must die. The government will randomly choose. Is there a difference between ending your consciousness or ending your twin's consciousness? If you think that there is a difference, then what is it?
Looking at this objectively, probably nobody is going to say that there is a difference. That is why you have to be a twin in the thought experiment.
