The more we understand how aging and death work, the less necessary they will be.

It's not clear for me how this follows from anything. As I read it, it implies that:

  1. Death is quite necessary today
  2. Death will become less necessary over time

Both don't follow from anything in this chapter.

Thanks. I have modified that sentence for clarity.
