imagine growing up in a world where reviving people from something that very obviously halts all their bodily functions for a nontrivial duration, such as cryonics or uploading, is commonplace.
I go to sleep every night. It doesn’t halt my bodily processes, but I become less intelligent then animals. People largely don’t seem concerned with animals dying, so the logical conclusion is that someone reduced to such low intelligence is effectively already dead.
