You essentially admitted that this is a correct concern, and not a "cultish" belief. Now we're just debating when.

Perhaps? In general, living an additional 6 months is something I'd desire.
That concern is a classic example of a cultish one because it can't be executed in the real world today, and most likely won't be possible to execute for decades at a minimum. There will be plenty of time to address such risks as they become more realistic. You can fantasize about them today, but be realistic that that's all you're doing.
