My first instinct response: THIS IS SO FUCKING COOL HOLY SHIT. This is the kind of thing that I was thinking about when I was ten years old. There's an early Twilight Zone episode where an old man is transferred into a new body, but has to leave his old wife behind because they can only afford the one body. He's thrilled for the moment, but very quickly realizes he can't leave her behind to die alone and requests to go back into his old body. The level of precision necessary for this kind of surgery is top, top class, and reading about how they manage it would entertain me for days. Extremely fascinating.
My second thought is that this is entering into the realm of Man-made Horrors Beyond My Comprehension, and is ripe for horror movie scripts. Please give me recommendations if something like it already exists, even if it's lower budget and corny.
To the title, I think their usage of the phrase "body" instead of "person" is related to their weird reduction of everything into extremely material concepts. A "brown body" experiences life differently than a "White body," so everything fits into those cookie-cutter experiences. The concept of "person" is an immaterial one, hence why they're so dismissive of babies in the womb counting as people.
There is no known way to connect the brain and the spinal nerves. Something like this won't be possible anytime within our lifetimes. Besides, from what I've heard say, the spine is more than just an information bus to the brain and should be considered to be part of it. There are reactions that are processed in the spine.
Get Out (2017) is a film with a bit of this in it. It's technique a horror but in the Twilight Zone way which you mentioned being the inspiration for your imagination when younger.
I did see that one when it first came out, but unfortunately it's just anti-White messaging from Jordan Peele of Key & Peele fame. The concept is fun, but the trope of "Whites use blacks as an accessory for their own lives" is both nonsensical and typical victimhood narrative.
It is very overladen with the tropes of racism but, if you strip all that away and just dumbly watch a simple movie with actors, it works well enough for a Twilight Zone made to movie number that you could watch before going to bed on a Friday night.
It's probably where the folks who did this study in the OP got the idea (Or the journalists reporting upon it).
Limp Liberal though he is, this is the time when Lindsey and his passion for detailing and cataloguing this sort of thing comes in handy, as do the comments telling him how and where he is wrong: https://newdiscourses.com/tftw-bodies/ ,like with a lot of things, it seems to have been popularised if not coined by Foucault. The comments have some other potential sources and if I had the time we could dive into the etymology of this one, but 'from shitty lefty pedo pomo french philosophers' is close enough for our purposes and I don't fancy subjecting myself to their evil words to dig at where he might have gotten it from. because I have another hunch:
Ultimately, I think the comments are still wrong and that this particular rhetorical turd comes from what may be one of the deepest and long raging religious and philosophical divides, the Platonic dualists vs the Aristotelian hylomorphic view. All their shit tends to be able to go back to Plato in unexpected ways.
The dualism stuff crops up particularly in the trans stuff. It makes absolutely 0 sense from a more hylomorphic view in which your body and soul are fundamentally one in order to be alive and for you to be you (essentially, it's hard to explain). But in this view it's utter gibberish. But in a dualist view where they are separate, and indeed separable? Being a 'x soul in a y body', assuming some kind of amoral or corrupt or mistaken deity (whether that be a demiurge or uncaring mother nature deity or fate), it makes complete sense.
"the body is the prison of the soul" - plato
"the soul is the prison of the body" - Foucault (there is definitely a bit of an inversion and flip and focus more on the body as good rather than the soul with Foucault)
... which uses state-of-the-art robotics and artificial intelligence...
Oh. Another VC scam. Congrats on your 60 hours of work in Blender to generate millions, I guess.
* Edit:
Although, if it were real, it would be hilarious when the 13%/50% statistic is blown away because black brains will get stuffed into white bodies, since the destruction of the body by drugs, untreated STDs, goyslop consumption, and straight up homicides would mean very very few "perfectly healthy" black bodies in the donor pool.

The bodies terminology likely comes from Michel Foucaul. He used the term extensively. For example, look up Discipline and Punish
It sounds like a slaver is describing what he's holding in his cargo hold.
Funny you should say that...
French philosopher Michel Foucault ‘abused boys in Tunisia’
Yeah, I'm vaguely aware of his misdoings. Thought he was preying on French boys, though. Suppose it was easier to prey on Tunisian kids.

The left has long had some wacky ideas about the two being separate, and also a prison from which they wish to escape. Transgenderism is a result and manifestation of this, and you'll note that 'queer bodies' is essentially the 2nd most popular after black (tied with 'brown bodies'), when you consider the underlying baseline amount due to scientists discussing black body radiation and a few other topics: https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=queer+bodies%2Cbrown+bodies%2Cblack+bodies%2C+black+and+brown+bodies%2C+&year_start=1800&year_end=2019&corpus=en-2019&smoothing=3
This is not a co-incidence or random quirk, it is linked to the way they view the world in fundamental ways.
This is good stuff. Haven't had the time to read the links.
I think it's just because they're all a bunch of sex perverts.
What is Brain Bridge?

It mentions 'AI', which means that it's 100% legit. I don't know what'cha talkin 'bout, Willis. ;)
Better watch out. They're coming for you.
The comic and movie Surrogates sort of covers this.
