I think you underestimate the power of modern day physics. Assume each 
molecule has undergone a drift in the centimeter range, there is 10 ^21 

possibilities for its original place. Assume there are 10 ^20 such molecules, so
there is 
10^41 possibilities, one is the original living system. Now, 10^41 is near 

2^140, this is a quantum computer with 140 bits could sort all the possibilities
in one calculation round.

What would forbid the building of a quantum computer able to entangle 140 

bits? It may not be a possibility now, but it will be in a ten years time frame.
We are very far from what you say and even from what most cryonicist would 
expect. We are not speaking about centuries, only about two or three 
technological generations.
