If you can get good data from the pet, it seems unlikely one wouldn't get good data from your brain and chemical structure. This seems to be a marginal benefit.

Depends on the kind of data needed. Some kinds of data might act as a key for unlocking larger amounts of more scrambled data. The data from the well-preserved pet might be next to useless on its own, but highly complementary with the scrambled information in your own brain.
