Well I believe in an afterlife where the soul chooses the body they will inhabit but once it knows the intentions of the destruction or ultimate death of the vessel, it can then choose to not inhabit it.
The parents' aim is to create a child and the IVF method which, by its nature/procedure, destroys life. But to the people trying to make a child it appears they think that it's worth the death of multiple embryos and because I am not in their shoes and don't really know how they feel (as you don't either, but think that you do) for them to want to keep the remains as people do with loved ones' ashes, this seems more like an honoring or respecting the dead.
Have you found any more information on this company, such as yearly sales numbers? I'm curious to see how and why they stay in business.
