Alright I think I'm going to write a brief taxonomy of teleportation models. A few off the top of my head: Crowbar, Comb and Switch
-
Crowbar teleportation: a gap is forced open at the destination and the source volume is inserted (probably leaving a vacuum at the source)
Comb teleportation: all the source matter is interleaved with the target volume, killing living subjects unless there's vacuum at the target
-
-
Destructive teleportation: whatever is at the target is annihilated somehow to make room for the source.
-
3-switch teleportation: source arrives at target, target volume "disappears", matter from a MYSTERIOUS THIRD PLACE arrives at source
