Who said copied consciousnesses aren't "the real deal"? I mean we are not the same, singular version of ourselves from the timeline we have been living, because if we were, we would be removed from the original one and put here, and thus disappear from our worlds. We have not done that, which means there is at least a version of ourselves still there, in our worlds, living. Whether we are the original or not hardly matters - but I believe we are not, nor that our bodies are truly here in the flesh. Otherwise, why do the bodies disappear when we die here, only to reappear a week later? That is only one of the many things suggesting this is not our real bodies, inside some hologram like your Danger Room.
You are making assumptions based on what you know. I am making assumptions based on the evidence given to us and the likelihood of each scenario. Perhaps the time may come when I am proven incorrect, and I will embrace that if it happens. But until then, I will stick to my hypothesis.
