Problem with this is that if the experimental treatments never get tried then even if cryonics works they will still be terminally ill when defrosted.

If reviving people works at all, it will probably be either uploading or rebuilding a human body from scratch. Reviving an ill person doesn't seem likely enough to be concerned about.
