    No, that’s fundamentally breaking the 7 inch limit.

    In that scenario, both your hand and foot would have traveled more than 7 inches. They would have traveled 7 PLUS the pre-teleport distance between your hand and foot. That’s the same distance every part of your body would have traveled.

    It doesn’t matter how you cut it, or how you define “you”. You would be teleporting more than 7 inches. There isn’t a single part of you that would ONLY be teleporting 7 inches.
