In a world where cryonics were obviously worthwhile to anyone with neuroscience expertise, one would expect to see many more cryonics-boosting neuroscientists than could be employed by Alcor and CI. Indeed, you might expect there to be more major cryonics orgs than just those two.
In other words, it’s only unfair if we think size of the “neuroscientist” pool is roughly comparable to the size of the market for cryonics researchers. It’s not, so IMO JRMayne raises an interesting point, and not one I’d considered before.
