If we equate the decision to undergo cryonics with the decision to live forever, then I think calling it a small decision is problematic.
Suppose I were to say, “You will live forever. That is your nature.”
It seems most people have one of two ways of dealing with this possibility--
1) create an endlessly beautiful future (heaven) or,
2) deny the possibility (death is an ultimate end).
These actions do not seem to me to be based on the notion that living forever is a small decision.
