This illustrates how immortality alone does not rid humanity of our problems(internal or external). As we see frequently in stories, immortality granted via a Faustian bargain without reading the fine print could end in literal hell. A similar fate could befall a human who has acquired immortality in the future. I for one, would not like to have immortality only to be kidnapped by a sadist, locked up and tortured for eternity. I suppose that is a risk I would take if given the opportunity to live forever.
Imagine a detective getting assigned a case that is never resolved. The obsession to solve the case never subsides. The detective never gives up, endlessly pouring over the records for eons, in a similar manner to that of detectives that spend decades trying to solve cold cases to this day.
The hope for immortality should always include other parameters.
