Incorrectly tracts insanity for populations living before cryopreservation is discovered.

You made a bad suggestion and didn't even bother to make the case for it.

You can't conclude from the fact that action X shows that a person is sane, that measuring how many people do X in a society is a good measurement for how sane a society is.
