It is a device of irony. Also, it signifies something, but I can't quite put my finger on it...something about psyche, or something...
Oh well, forget I said that...
http://www.cjas.org/~leng/lain.html (Thought Experiments Lain) might have something about it, because it has loads of other stuff on it.

I agree; it's ironic. Delightfully ironic. When I saw that, what I thought was that they must have reached their conclusions about dying *after* they were dead...Chisa discovered that being dead wasn't so much fun after all, but the accela kid didn't have any problem with it.

It could have to do w/ the fact that Chiisa wasn't in the Wired when she died, but the raver guy was "on the brink of the singularity"--when in Cyberia the line between the real world and the Wired is blurred, and the usage of drugs alters one's morphogenetic field to coincide more closely with the Wired.

that makes sense.
