it helps to drop those.
it also helps to drop both "must be this" and "can't be that"
This is the quintessential definition of "unanchored."

Jesus taught that only God knows those answers.
God knows even the minute details (DNA) about us.
Thus, with such knowledge it would be easy for God to give us a re-do in being resurrected restored back to life.
At death we No longer need our mind and body but just to be in God's memory the safest place to be til Resurrection Day meaning Jesus' coming Millennium-Long Day governing over Earth for a thousand years- 1st Corinthians 15:24-26; Acts 24:15
I prefer Meerkat's counting of the millennia (as "days" in God's eternal time). That places all the millennial stuff in the past, NOT our yet to be achieved far future that our ancestors would never have contemplated. Meerkat's insights trump your JW dogma, IMO.

Your worst enemy cannot harm you as much as your own unguarded thoughts. Develop the mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect the poise of the mind: follow the calmness, the absence of pride. - Sutta Nipata...
