Call me cynical, but extending life faster than your age ticks up sounds like the stuff of sci-fi. Wake me up when someone survives peer review immortality. "Longevity escape velocity is just another buzzword until I see it in a bar graph with error bars."

Think of it as an executive strategy for your life span metrics: max out ROI by outliving your aging liabilities. "With longevity escape velocity, my quarterly life reviews will finally be showing exponential growth."
