This is a good point. In general, you get redundancy by splitting samples over multiple locations and storing cells at -196 liquid nitrogen or slightly warmer vapor phase.

I also think sequencing is another form of insurance that applies to cell storage for aging, because sequencing as much of your cells as possible now is basically a digital save state of your youngest cells. A rubric for age-reversal, at least for your cells.
