It does not touch on religious or personal issues of personal identity and theory of mind and is aimed at ‘victims’ (endangered species); as well, it stays very close to existing applications and technology.
I’d guess close to existing applications & technology. If you flip either of the others, I don’t see much of a backlash. Consider instead preserving stem cell from common species like dogs. Not much of a reaction there. Consider the suggestion that entire endanger species samples be frozen per cryonics; wouldn’t people regard it as a waste of space? But again, not much of a reaction.
