I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, if it isn't I apologize in advance.
My question is obviously regarding True Mind Switch:

It says there, that it is a permanent swap. My question comes in however is, would Psychic Chirurgery undo the swap?
For example: I switch with NPC X, kill my old body, suffer a grand total of 4 negative levels (temporary and otherwise, 2 of which could be undone with Psychic Chirurgery), then someone uses Psychic Chirurgery to try and undo it. Would that force me out of that body, thus killing me? Or does that body essentially become my natural body once my old one is killed?

If it does, then what about the Mind Switch + Astral Seed combo? Even though you in effect suffer a permanent negative level from using that, it still seems a lesser sacrifice than what must be done for True Mind Switch. If you mind switch into NPC X, and then use Astral Seed whilst in NPC X, you can then return to your body, kill yourself, and return 10 days later with a body exactly like NPC X, albeit with a permanent negative level due to death.
In addition, the Mind Switch + Astral Seed combo can be done several levels earlier than the True Mind Switch method.
I have tried finding the answer to this question, but everywhere I look I can't seem to find one.
Actually, for that matter, can Psychic Chirurgery heal the two negative levels from killing your old body when using True Mind Switch? If not, the Mind Switch + Astral Seed combo is again better by default.
EDIT: Perhaps stupid question to get around the issue: could you manifest True Mind Switch on yourself? You leave your current body and enter it, by the power description, the last body you entered is considered your natural body so. . .
