I noticed on May 26 Saul Kent was listed, with a COD put as "cryopreserved". Does this constitute a death? Rusted AutoParts 00:44, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
He is dead as a dodo, he ain't coming back. Cryopreservation is not a COD, just a way for the rich dead to waste their money on the forlorn hope of "coming back from the dead" one day. How vain. WWGB (talk) 01:00, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. The cryopreserved are officially pronounced dead in the living world. Ref(chew)(do) 20:02, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's certainly a COD if the person didn't die from another cause first, encompassing at least hypothermia and whatever drug cocktail they're injected with. On another note, I had a good eye roll at whoever removed homicide as a COD about a month ago. Like basically all CODs, it is an agglomeration of certain circumstances of the things that actually cause people to die. Star Garnet (talk) 14:25, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
