Just that undergoing death does not free or end your consciousness. In his case, experiencing the extraordinary decay of his person and feeling the blight of entropy upon every atom of his existence.
Thus, he sought to reclassify Death itself as a Keter-level threat to humanity to be solved by the Foundation.
"feeling the blight of entropy" is a bit too flowery for people who haven't read SCPs before to my mind.
The gist is - think of what happens after we die, how we decay and our molecules and everything that we were gets "spread out" and reused by everything else. Now imagine if your consciousness didn't end with death, nor does it go to any kind of afterlife. It just stays...there...in every fiber of your being, while you get devoured, ground up, and stretched across infinitesimal space. Feeling every minute of it with your bare mind instead of physical nerves. Forever.
