Where does it end? It doesn’t. Why should it? Life is good, health is good, beauty and happiness and fun and laughter and challenge and learning are good. This does not change for arbitrarily large amounts of life and beauty. If there were an upper bound, it would be a special case, and that would be inelegant.
I love Eliezer's writing. What I meant, though, was that while I wish Adams hadn't died, he died with a lifetime's work fulfilled. The only deaths I really find tragic are the ones that stop something big from progressing, something that required one man or woman to push it forward.
