      Strawman. Yes, liquid nitrogen requires energy to create. Cryonics facilities do not usually generate it but instead buy it, it’s very inexpensive. They have perpetual funds which the first failed Cryonics attempts did not. They do not cool refrigerant via electricity on site. I abbreviated this explanation because I thought it was obvious but apparently not. My point is the entire structure of modern Cryonics is not anything like what the article depicts, it’s a strawman talking about 50 years ago.

      Curious to know your background in thermodynamics, my education puts me in a good place, maybe top 1% for the “laws of thermodynamics” specifically.

      Now I don’t question your ability to understand thermodynamics. But I am super curious what your reading comprehension scores were in school? There are always areas we can continue to improve, you know.
