> Double lifespan sounds like a nightmare if we don't dramatically change all of society first.

See I'm not worried because odds are this won't be a simple intervention. It won't be "take this pill daily to 2X your lifespan". It will likely be an incredible effort that takes constant discipline and daily commitment. And most people simply are incapable or unwilling to do that.

I expect only fraction of a percent to maybe do the work necessary, and even then, it will come at a huge personal expense.
