      Dying is evolutionarily advantageous as a general rule for species, that includes humans. Just bcz you don’t want to die doesn’t mean it would be an advancement.

      If that happened, it would probably be one of the stupidest things we’ve done, second only to climate change.

        Dying is evolutionarily advantageous

        We ceased adhering to ‘survival of the fittest’ the moment we discovered medicine, so that’s plain nonsense. Also, given the time scales that evolution works on, it’s just entirely irrelevant.
