Actually, there is an intent to bring Ted back to life.

The human consciousness resides in the brain.

The people who only have their head frozen will have to have some sort of new body grown for them.

But the ability to safely unthaw a frozen head and give it a new body still remains in the future.

And the brain resides in the human consciousness.

Your statement is highly speculative. That dosen't mean it is wrong, it just means that at this point we don't know whether it is correct or not. There are some in this area who believe that the body is so fully integrated with consciousness that the Williams experiment would be doomed to failure. If I were going to incur the expense of freezing myself I would freeze the whole body just to increase the odds a bit... :-)
