Economies of scale mean that increasing numbers of cryonics users lower costs and improve revival chances. I would class this with disease activism, e.g. patients (and families of patients) with a particular cancer collectively organizing to fund and assist research into their disease. It’s not a radically impartial altruist motivation, but it is a moral response to a coordination/collective action problem.
Yes, that makes sense. Though that kind of thinking does not motivate me to go door-to-door every Saturday trying to convince my neighbors to buy more science books.
