> "Science advances one funeral at a time" This is mostly due to age related brain function degradation, most scientists now have to relearn and try new things several times in their middle age. Unfortunately many lose that ability with the age, but retain the power they have gained before that. If scientists could retain the abilities of their young brain for longer, science would benefit greatly from improving the ratio of learning/working time. In general i agree that without death resetting ossification and concentration power would take longer, but is the death of billions of people worth that? Is the current interval the perfect one, or maybe we should intentionally create antibiotic resistant bacteria to make it faster again. If no why is intentionally hindering the development of life extension any different than trying to destroy the effects of life extension we achieved so far?
