Yes, I agree both of these matter. I wonder which one is more important?
I'd guess close to existing applications & technology. If you flip either of the others, I don't see much of a backlash. Consider instead preserving stem cell from common species like dogs. Not much of a reaction there. Consider the suggestion that entire endanger species samples be frozen per cryonics; wouldn't people regard it as a waste of space? But again, not much of a reaction.
