Even if it fails, if the promise of a chance to be revived at some point allows you or your loved ones to be more at peace with your mortality it seems worth it for the relatively minor cost.
- dragonwriter 9y agoHaving a loved one stuck for an extended time in a maybe-not-permanently-dead-but-probably-so state doesn't seem to give people more peace with mortality, judging by what I've seen of, e.g., people with family members on life support, missing-but-presumed-dead, etc. So, insofar as this is viewed optimistically as something other than a combination of assisted suicide with weird storage of remains, I'm skeptical that it would be psychologically beneficial to the survivors.
