I expect life extension technology to not be far off in worlds with artificial wombs and embryo engineering, so TFRs likely won’t be an actual issue since population decline would essentially halt.
Not really, I think significant increases in life expectancy are unlikely because of inherent tradeoffs.
Keeping the organism coherent requires supression, otherwise the signal eventually diverges into noise, which is why only a tiny, compressed set of instructions is what’s passed forward.
We’re already developing immunte therapies that will help with this, the end of sarcopenia will also afford us more independece much later, but all of our systems eventually fail because of unavoidable thermodynamics
