As far as I understand, this is just looking at demographic data, so probably if you do everything like exercise and diet right, and you have good genes, 115 is about the limit. It's basically saying that lifespan isn't going to continually drift upwards about that level with marginal improvements in living standards.
I don't see that we can get anything from that data which gives you clear answers about the potential for direct medical or pharmaceutical interventions to extend life.
