This is my take too. Even modern cryonics is crude, but it's still better information preservation than the current approach of letting the body decompose and dissipate entirely. The article covers the state of the physical complications quite well. I doubt we will be able to reverse the physical damage and safely reanimate before we learn how to digitize people, so I think the best bet is likely going to be in digitizing the brain after death. Even if that comes with some damage, we know the brain is pretty plastic and functions well enough even with entire areas missing. Still seems like a reach. But what's the other option? You can't take the money with you and there's no better alternatives if you would like more time.
