But this assumes that you'd stay with all these problems. Why would this be the case? You seem to connect that one has to be old and frail. I don't see the connection.

You think this is a good trade-off? To me it does not appear to be a good trade-off at all. I fail to see why health-related issues related to aging components would be anything good.
Also, not everyone makes it to a long life anyway; some people may die early due to a heart attack.
