You would be surprised how many people would choose the former - I would guess a great majority of people would. Once you remove the hard labour of mediaeval farming, food prep, cleaning and artisanship by putting yourself at the top of the pyramid, modern medicine is the only thing that stands out - and lots of people value status over healthcare (especially below the age of 60).

That you don't, is a sign of you being a 1%er like most people here. (And even here, I am sure many people would choose having thousands of people doing their bidding to the creature comforts of modern automation or medicine.)
