I still disagree. I spent a lot of time in nursing homes when I was a teenager and am quite confident that adding five years of elderly life would not only not be noticed by many people who are just whiling away their later years, a lot of them wouldn’t even want it. You’re assuming that a magic pill adding five years of longevity would either distribute those years equally or primarily extend youthful years, but it’s not at all clear that that’s the case.
