Ah. Yes, definitely a valid concern, but I can think
of a better simplification. Rather than pull the guy
out then have a doctor inject, have a robot arm in the
tank perform the injection. Also, have the entire
suspension tank be horizontal. Zoom out and drain
after the nanites do their work. Still have a doctor
monitor the process, of course - operating a console
on the outside of the time.
