Ok:
if you make OM's correspond to numbers, then QI holds if for all OM's
(encoded by some n) there are some (at least one) f(n) so that it is a
continuation.
If the aliens destroy all the reconstitution machines (and the person
beaming over does not find the beaming to have failed), this would mean
that there exists a number n (=OM) for which there is no f(n) which
encodes a continuation.
So there can't both be a continuation OM (f(n) for n) _and_ aliens
destroying _all_ the machines in the multiverse - which would say there
is _no_ such f(n), for some given n (the teleportation n).
Maybe the confusion arises because we are talking on 2 levels: the
platonic view (numbers) and the inside view (OMs). What is determined in
the one (platonic relations) decides what is possible in the OMs.
Cheers,
Günther
