I think the person you're replying to is referring to cryonics (the topic of the original article), which is still illegal in many jurisdictions.
The point of drug discovery to slow down or stop aging is not to keep people in that frail state of life for as long as possible. Instead is to keep people in their 30s for as long as possible. Most research out there is trying to solve aging, not death.

It’s funny on HN tonight. We have one thread where a county in rural Tennessee lets houses burn down for want of a $75 free or 0.13% tax increase, because freedom.
And here, because freedom, people are advocating for the freedom to pretend death isn’t approaching, at the cost of millions to society.
How do you equate some people's denial of death with a cost of millions to society rather than as costs to the indovidual?
