Yeah I’m imagining people living 2x as longer in the great health.
I don’t see any problems. If you want to kill someone, go ahead, that’s between you and them and your reasons for thinking they should die at a certain age. But I have no qualms about anyone living longer, healthier lives. This includes you.
