And why is it that you can deliberately and measurably and - to some degree - reproducibly modify your behavior over the course of time? How is it that I am a vastly different person from 5 years ago, and I know that if I want I can become a completely different one in ~ 1 or 2 years? Which one is my "true" behavior and which ones are my "fake" ones? All feel natural to me...

Of course humans change. A state machine can also change state. Doesn't mean that a state machine has control over their behavior.
