Here is the 2 cards, A is the hotel key, B is the ultimate magic with āwrite as much as possibleā from the screen above.
I had a fun conversation with @Satur9 at the event and i realized i need to draft a document to handle my implants post mortem. Specifically, having my Apex and Spark destroyed. They are me and if me is dead fuck off.

You think there needs to be specific instructions?
I was just planning to leave instructions to not mention them, and roast me like usual

For the time being, itās best that my family doesnāt find out that Amal got under my skinā¦
I need better family membersā¦
All implants end up becoming a part of you, not just anatomicallyā¦ And I see how that can be more noticeable with the VK ones.

Just note that itās best to just not mention them and request a cremation.
Post mortem there really isnāt anything that says family has to follow your wishes

Depends on the jurisdiction.
Here, unless there are public health reasons to the contrary (which will likely mean cremation), your Will is pretty much binding. There are some exceptions for family provision but I would doubt they would impact on body disposal.
I agree not mentioning them is likely a good idea unless family know about them. Most crematoriums want the NoK to list any implants in case they explode and cause damage to their equipment. I really think that is all about pace makers etc. ours should not be an issue.

Human remains are not considered property. A will can only execute wishes of property ownership.
This is only my understanding of it.
Wills are normally executed far after the person has died. You can include items like funeral arrangements and body disposal but they arenāt legally enforceable. Just like you can include you wish not to have an autopsy. You can put what ever you wish in there. But there is no governing body that has to enforce it. Probate (property) is the only thing I believe is enforceable.
Maybe adjusting the will to state, if my wishes for funeral arrangements are met, my estate goes to XX. If they are not met they go to XX.
But I feel that opens up the will to litigation

Sure but do you use your NExT (random example) to sign documents cryptographically to prove you made them? Itās things like that where they become a double edged sword because they are outside of your control.
Meh. That involves trust and hope. If itās not explicitly stated, folks tend to do mental gymnastics to justify whatever they want. It also boils down to, āsecurity by obfuscation is no security.ā

Everything is outside of your control after you die. However, there are things that you can do to help prevent certain problems.
At the end of the day, some things will depend on how trustworthy your family members are TBH.
Alternatively, donāt die to begin withā¦

New cars are easy to drive the first 80k miles. Low maintence.
After a while parts start acting up on their own, things start going bad. Years and Years of riding hard start catching up to the car. Paint starts getting a white hue to it. Headlights become foggy. Aftermarket parts arent always within budget or available. Fluids start leaking. Motor just isnt as strong as it used to be.

Like I said, it depends on the jurisdiction.
Where I live a will can cover much more, such as appointing guardians for minor children and dictating funeral arrangements.
I like your example though of having beneficiaries inheriting dependant on fulfilment of your wishes.
Most wills here are contested on family provision issues, so one child or an ex spouse or a step child is either left out or given a percentage which is not similar to others. Plus this is a legislative provision so itās very hard to get around. Normally one puts reasons in the will as to why someone gets less and even if you want to leave someone out, the usual advice is dont, just give them less to show you thought about what you were doing and explain why they get less. Even then the will is often contested.
There is even an argument that a corpse here could be property under our criminal code. I will need to look now. Although there are offences for interfering with a corpse which would normally be laid. You have got me interested in this and i will likely waste half the morning looking for cases on it now lol.
