The big question is if humanity will choose genetic modification or completely abandon the flesh for machinery.
There are arguments whether we will have human super soldiers or robot soldiers instead.
If we prioritize colonizing the universe, we might choose to become machines and abandon the flesh unless scientist are able to make Humans as Strong and Durable as Conan the Bacterium, the toughest living thing on Earth.
Why are people assuming that the old contracts and obligations will still hold if this shit is real? What about the language or culture of this new time. Hell whose to say you will be able to even afford this "cure", and even want it. I have read to many scifi books about this subject to think its a good idea. I rather die or waste my money on experimental shit instead of giving it to a snake oil salesmen for the rich.

You wont have to chose. It can be one or the other.
Your consciousness is the only thing that will survive, whether it's still in a state of a intact brain or uploaded on a nanocomputer.
You can always clone yourself a new nord master race body or live you life as an imortal cyborg. Your choice.
