The question is, would the copy be as good as the original. Even assuming you can emulate the human brain well enough to simulate human thought and emotion, the question is whether the person's consciousness is also not only properly emulated. Of course, if the person in question is copied successfully, but still alive, the copy isn't them anymore, it would be a different individual, with diverging experiences since the moment of being created through the act of copying. Even if the act of copying happened at the moment of death, the copy may, by all appearances be just like the individual who was copied, but the original would still be dead.
