The proposition seems to me to be subject to the same uncertainty problem as the "will cryonics work" question itself - there's just no way of predicting the financial/social position of reanimated cryonics patients or their ability to affect the treatment of their fellow patients, not to mention very little incentive beyond general altruism to do so in the face of financial/social difficulties.
Would it help if the overall set of questions was divided into sub-problems? For example, "If cryonic revival doesn't end up working", "If cryonic revival works, but revivees can't effectively help each other", and "At least some cryonic revivees can effectively others if they choose to".
