no, aging is not a disease. Also, even if we define it as such, the problem will be the uneven availability of that cure, because billionaires will hog it. Can't have 8+ billion immortals. Who also keep producing more immortals. Therefore the tech would be kept a close guarded secret only serving the 0.00001%

    You are so confused. Aging definitely is a disease, curing it won't make anyone "immortal" more than curing Alzheimer's, we're not in a comic book.

    And "the rich will hoard it" is so conspiracy theory that I don't even.
