So then, what about the people fixated on immortality? If living beyond their natural lifetime is a negative obsession at any point (i.e. once their quality of life is pure suffering) then what? Why would the same logic not apply to people kept alive beyond normal limits for hunter gatherers, either in terms of age or remaining quality of life? Do we have an obligation to use every artificial construction invented that could keep us alive, and who is that obligation to? Given that many conditions are irreparable, the general direction of the logic that we always want to live if enough things could be changed (i.e. so we enjoy life) is a truism that doesn't mean anything. Even if all forms of dementia get cures, they won't be restorative for those with it today.. for example.
