No, with a few technical modifications it can be quite plausible. However, if it is actually true, I have no more reason to care about my own post-revival self than I do about some other person's.
Once my likelihood of patternists being right in that way is updated past a certain threshold, it may be that even the modest cost of remaining a cryonicist might not seem worth it.
The other practical consequence of patternists being right is an imperative to work even harder at anti-aging research because it might be our only hope after all.
