It has not been established entirely that the liquid cryo process is actually superior to the vapor process and reports of superiority could actually be a simple case of expectation bias. My understanding is that the liquid dunking is only employed at the end of the cryo process which makes sense since the whole cryo process must be carefully controlled (ramp down, dwell and ramp up) over a long period of time in order to avoid thermal shock of the materials. Furthermore, simply freezing in the home freezer can be very effective and permanent so I wouldn't put too much stock in getting much from a 29 degree difference in cryogenic temperatures. Besides why hasn't some enterprising person cryo'd using uh, even colder temperatures. Nitrogen is not the ultimate gas temperature wise.
