This passage is has become a standard citation for folks who claim a "reincarnation-that-is-not-reincarnation". How do you address that?

Honestly, I just don't see how anybody can get anything like transmigration from that. I read it and come to the opposite conclusion, especially when taken in context (which many fail to do) with the rest of the relevant passages, including the one about the teacher teaching a poem to a student. Dunno. I guess people see what they want to see, interpret what they want to interpret. It's no skin off my teeth what other people think, really.
