I read somewhere that if you do whole-body donation, your organs aren't given to people who need them - the whole cadaver goes to medical schools for trainees to cut up. Obviously doctors need training and stuff, but I'd like my delicious kidneys to save a life more than I want them to be target practice for a 22 year old sociopath surgeon.
Depending on what a person died of not all of their organs are viable for every use case.
Consider a elderly person with a history of illness might not have a kidness healthy enough to surive and function in a transplant. However training a surgion or in a lab they could still do some good. For sure more good than being filled with peteochemicals and burried
For real give me a sky burial.
But honestly just donate all your organs and give your body to science.

Oh, definitely. I was thinking specifically of my own exquisite corpse, I suppose.
