I don’t disagree; I /think/ that it’s possible that the idea I’m trying to explain here may be a strong factor explaining why people /do/ think that. Eg, “what sort of person would be willing to even try jumping into a future society with no family, no friends, no community? What a weirdo”.
I’m making a different point here. I’m saying that most people who dismiss it do so based on an immediate gut reaction of, “Cryonics? That’s strange and something from science fiction.”
