The biggest consequence of defeating aging is how people will work and will other people have jobs . We already see this happening now. If you have a set of very experienced people that can perform their tasks why do you need to replace or fire them? Consider the job market with professors in math. Due to tenure you have a bunch of math professors that do extraordinary work. People who would have replaced them instead get non tenure track positions or go into other fields . This is not to blame math professors that have jobs right now. Or the situation that grad students have in becoming professors. It also has a weird effect where the social dogma stays for longer than would be if medical science wasn’t so good. I don’t know what the long term changes that will do. To be honest if there wasn’t so much emphasis on people learning calculus math would have become like getting a Philosophy degree.
