That's /exactly/ the method of reasoning which inspired this post.
To me (look below, I managed to confuse myself), it appears like this position is an expression of failure to imagine death, or otherwise failing to understand that there's still an expected value which can be calculated even before death, and actions can be taken to maximize that expected value of the future, which is desribed by "caring about the future".
