Wouldn't it be better to leave this decision to the surgeons of the future?
I would prefer a full body suspension. If, when re-animation becomes
possible, I would leave it to the surgeons of the future to decide whether
it would be better/safer/more feasible/more practical to re-animate my full
body and repair as necessary or, at that time, transplant my brain into a
new body.
