Based on your premises, don't you mean the opposite of everything you just said?

If people are frozen we can take as much time as we need. If they age and die then we have an incentive to work faster. (Although if you do the math, the current world population is insignificant compared to the potential future of humanity, so cautiousness should win out either way.)

My comment pointed out how cryonics creates a personal selfish reason to care about the future. I'd like for people to base their decisions on altruism, but the fact is that we're only human.
