Problem with the data books is that timeline is off since it has Planet Vegeta destroyed the same year Goku was born. In Minus Goku is stated to be three and Vegeta is destroyed a month later. So, the Saiyans could have been working with Frieza longer.
The thing about wishing for Goku to be an immortal to prevent him from dying from the heart virus. He would still be alive, but in great pain the entire time until they find a cure that could have taking years. That sounds almost cruel, especially given that the virus hurt so much that Goku literally cried and was screaming at the top of his lungs. His friends and family could have decided to let him die with some degree of dignity instead of letting him suffer.

And that assuming that he cure doesn't get destroyed in the chamber. We also don't know who created the cure. Could be some other company other than CC. And given that this virus attacks the heart, his heart may have been permanently damaged by the time they found a cure. So he would be alive and crippled, not something Goku would like.

That's true. Daizenshuu 7 predates Minus so, at the time, all they had to work with was the Bardock special where Goku was placed into his pod as a newborn. Minus moves the destruction of Vegeta forward a bit, giving the Saiyans 9 years in Frieza's service rather than 6.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.The dragon can restore youth, so we already know it's capable of restoring tissue damage.
Besides, if the disease caused permanent muscular damage then Goku would probably have that in the main timeline too given that it affected him.
Also Scientists have no specific discipline, don't be silly. That's why they all know where to find each other's labs and Bulma can make shrinking devices, infinite storage pods and magic tracking pocket watches.
It is possible that the virus did do long-term damage to Goku given that he claimed to have reached his limit during the Cell Games and everything was on Gohan. Which proves to be untrue since he reached Super Saiyan 2 and 3 while dead. I can't see why Goku wouldn't get more powerful during that time if he could. He can still have Gohan succeed him while acting as a backup if things go wrong.
But I admit that's just a theory of mines.
Even still, Goku was sick for days, not months or years.
You do bring an interesting point about Shenron healing Goku's heart. But could he since that would count as natural damage like how he couldn't cure Goku? It can go either way since aging is natural and Shenron can reverse it, but healing damage because of illness could be a no-no.
Something to think about either way.

The storage pods are also shrinking devices.
But yes, Omnidisciplinary Scientist is a trope for a reason.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Yes. Bulma's father invented the capsules, but she invented the shrinking watch and the Dragon Radar.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.It was pretty much there so Bulma could ride with Goku on the Nimbus, despite her not being pure-hearted. But then Roshi took it and then...I dunno. It never came back. Like a lot of things in the Red Ribbon Army.
The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!I never got that nickname. He doesn't look demonic to me. He's here because he has a cool design and power and to show Goku being smart about victory. He's probably going to be a little relevant post-tournament too, given what a Story-Breaker Power 'can't be injured' is.
I agree. Botoma isn't demonic at all. But he does look like Winnie the Pooh. Yellow bear with a red shirt that is far too small for his body, the comparisons are too easy.
I hope all the U6 fighters except Frost unless he gives a good reason for being evil stick around after the tournament is over. I want to see just how broken Botoma's abilities are. Like, he can absorb one of Beerus' attack or something.

There's never a good reason to be evil.
That's the point of being evil, I don't need a good reason to do what I do, I do it because I want to do it, because I'm evil and I don't care. If you've got a 'good reason', then you're not necessarily evil, just an extremist.

So not only can Shenron not revive someone who died of Natural causes, he can't remove any natural diseases to prevent a death by natural causes?
I suppose it's possible, but there's other possibilities:
Well, that last one is a joke. Most of these are just suggestions, since the original idea (Shenron can't wish away a natural disease) makes the most sense. I'm just putting them out there.
...POWERED ARMOUR IN DBZ COULD WORK!!!!
