I largely agree, but a lot of the benefits may not be apparent for 10 years or more. A feedback loop that long is hard to use and not strongly motivating for most people.

I struggle to think of any benefits which become apparent after 10 years. Longevity could be one, but it kinda never becomes apparent. And for specific long-term results (e.g. you don’t develop the metabolic syndrome in your middle age because you were a runner in your 20s and 30s) there’s little hard data.

That was rather my point. (Note that I said “10 years or more”.)
