I assume I know what you're getting at: how do the various types react to that scenario? Fours have traditionally found the notion very comforting; no pain, discomfort, disappointment, depression, boredom, shame. The world of oblivion has none of those things.
Heck! That's a great bargain, where do we sign?
Sevens might be distressed about losing their feelings of joy, but for four, losing the feelings is the sweetest part of the whole package.
And so you have the philosophy behind:
"This the end, beautiful friend.
This the end, my only friend."
