I didn't explicitly state the social consequences in my post but it was one of the major concerns I intimated at. Given our present state of social development etc, is it possible....one word....NO....and I discussed your other options (various methods....freezing, taking "the bits"). If you had a group of very long lived, civilised and socially responsible travelers....YES, possibly. Then it would depend on the circumstance they found themselves in at any one time in their voyage.
