Absolutely. Ageism is terrible. If we can cure the diseases of aging that affect our mental and physical performance, we'll hopefully get rid of this sad state of affairs. It's such a waste that so many incredibly brilliant people are seeing their mental functions decline because of the accumulation of beta amyloids in their brains or whatever other problem that happens to be in evolution's blind spot (humans didn't use to live that old, and rarely reproduced at that age if they did). A huge waste for humanity.
