it's just a definition
matter = mass + space
same as
water = H² + O
if you take the O away or one of the H, then it's not "water" anymore, it doesn't cease to be, it just turned into something else.

And as to expand on "The matter is not annihilated, merely transformed.": You have matter(mass + volume) of which you transform the mass into energy, and you are left with volume but no mass and since a "something" without both mass and volume is not matter anymore, the matter "ceases to exist" which can be misunderstood, but merely means that you have taken the mass away and what is left cannot be defined as matter anymore. It is not, in fact, annihilated.
There we go, transformation is the key. Nothing ever ceases to exist(die) it just transforms(evolves or deliberate changes turns it) into something else. This is the basis of all life i think.

Until you get pulled into a black hole. Weird shit happens when space and time fold in on themselves.

you fill a nuclear reactor with 100 kg Uranium After the reaction you have 99 kg mass The reactor delivers to the ambient the amount of energy E = 1 kg x c^2 Following your assumption something having 1 kg mass has been turned into energy But what ? The total number of proton,neutrons and electrons inside the reactor is still the same Not even one material particle get lost

Until you get pulled into a black hole. Weird shit happens when space and time fold in on themselves. I've read that some physicists doubt the existence of singularities on the grounds that every time a physics problem was "solved" with a possibility for infinity in the mix (as with infinite density), the original understanding was either determined wrong in a number of years or left dubiously inconclusive.

So as heat is enery, it can "carry" mass. Nope, heat does not carry mass Take a radiation, it is made of photons Photons have energy : e = hf Where h is the Planck constant and f is the frequency of the radiation Yet,their mass is null
