Aging sucks. I think with the tremendous computing resources presently wasted on vapid AI slop and endless fart videos, we could instead use it for anti-aging research.
Let's just say that even if you where immortal, there is still the issue of your "soul" aging. In other words, you know you are old, and you won't enjoy playing Pokemon Platinum in the same way.
Society will also increasingy isolate you in various ways.
I'd rather be isolated than dead.
Not saying I'd rather be dead (oftentimes I would), but there's some things money, time, and success can't fix. Like for example: if you fuck a goat, you are a goat fucker for life.
Plus if you get dementia. But there would have to be always a trace, right?
Depends. Will I still have my glasses, now that I have time to read all the books in the library?
