Well, aren’t you privileging the hypothesis that cryonics works?
We have actual object-level reasons to believe that.
What if it works, but leaves you disabled? I know several people who have “living wills”—they’d rather be dead than disabled. Unless you’re saying that your hypothetical thawing process will be nearly perfectly safe
I think it would be, since a safe process appears to be possible and you can (and presumably would) just be left frozen until it was sufficiently developed.
Shouldn’t we let them decide their own values regarding such a significant issue?
You can’t not decide. Not signing them up is still deciding.
