I was kind of horrified how bad the arguments against cryonics are[0]. As far as I can tell noone has ever gone to the trouble to seriously and in good faith argue against it, they just apply the absurdity heuristic and say its advocates are freaks/frauds etc. (And yet I have not made my contract of immortality with the cult of the severed head.)

What stops you signing up? If it's "cryocrastination", read this:

"I know more people who are planning to sign up for cryonics Real Soon Now than people who have actually signed up. I expect that more people have died while cryocrastinating than have actually been cryopreserved. If you've already decided this is a good idea, but you "haven't gotten around to it", sign up for cryonics NOW. I mean RIGHT NOW." - http://lesswrong.com/lw/wq/you_only_live_twice/
