That's what aging is. Aging is the process of rotting to death in your own body. There's nothing "benign" about it.

Humans learned a lot of ways to sugarcoat it. Many ways to cope. But if I told you that I want to create and unleash something that would make billions suffer, getting worse over decades, and all afflicted people would eventually die?

You'd call me a twisted monster, rightfully so.

And yet, when I propose we do the opposite, you say "no, it's natural, it's benign, rotting to death is fine actually, everyone does it".
