The argument/idea that we should concentrate resources on preventing old age (and therefore age-associated diseases that kill) thereby dramatically increasing the human life span with an eye toward increasing it indefinitely is not a scientific concept.
Agreed, that's more of a moral/political argument. But it is only one aspect of the topic "defeating death". For example: "aging can be cured" and "cryonics can delay death" are legitimate scientific concepts.
