What is the cost of 100,000 lives lost every day? [1]
If you have objections to agelessness through medicine, and many do, then it is probably a good idea to first consider the question above, and then consider your objection in the same terms.
I didn't say death is without cost. I said, eliminating death has bigger implications than we can imagine. It's certainly conceivable that the net effect would be negative.
The original post was phrased to the effect that anyone who thinks death has a purpose is a priori not just wrong, but very, very wrong.
