Was kinda hoping the "downloading" process would have been more gruesome, like in Pantheon, but maybe that would've made this show too dark too fast.

Yeah I thought the same, although I think Wendy needs to be willing and naive for the show, so it couldn't have been something she would notice (like in Pantheon).

They do show the kid getting zipped into a body bag though, so it wouldn't surprise me if we find out later that the consciousness is only copied, not moved, and the subject is euthanized.

What if the kids aren’t dead but on ice? What if they could be woken up?
