Living with a Macbook (insert any useful technology here) improves your life.
Living without disease/sickness/things medical care provides improves your life.
I don't think it's a straw man. As you said, no amount of medical care can stave off death indefinitely, so I'm not sure why it matters if "nobody is going to die" from not owning a MacBook if nobody is going to live forever from getting medical care. In fact, plenty of people die even after they've received cutting edge care / insanely expensive procedures.
