Correct me if I'm wrong, but if this were an accurate metaphor, wouldn't cancer incidence decrease with age, rather than increase?

  No. This research addresses just one cause of ageing; there are many others. It's all of them together that causes increased cancer rates.

  Cancer does decrease with age. I read it somewhere that it is some professor's pet theory but they do have some evidence.
