Very fair argument. But I strongly dispute your second assumption, that of "technology taking us there," at least today: Right now, I see absolutely no reason to believe in a strongly correlated association between tech advancement and e.g. medical improvement.
E.g. I'd argue that the biggest medical improvement of my lifetime was in a sense a step backwards, in that it was our collective discovery and consequent reduction in smoking.
