You do confirm the mass still exists because of the energy. Mass is
conserved in nature. In E=mc^2, the energy is the effect the matter
transitioning to aether has on the neighboring matter and aether.

You CHOOSE to believe the mass 'becomes' energy.
I CHOOSE to believe the physical transformation of matter to energy is
energy.

Ah, so you can't measure the mass to confirm experimentally that it is
conserved. Yet you claim you KNOW this is true anyway, without
experimental verification.

Energy is not mass. The measured mass is changed.

No, it's not. There's not a lick of experimental evidence that says
that mass is conserved.
You believe it is anyway, but you want to hide it somewhere where it
can't be measured.

It is measured in the energy created. If you existed in water and
could not directly detect the mass of the water and an ice cube melts
in the water you would conclude the mass associated with the ice cube
no longer exists which is incorrect. The water still exists. The state
of the water transformed from ice to liquid water.

If you existed in water and could not detect the water directly and an
ice cube melted does the mass associated with the ice cube still
exist?
