Yes indeed. Though the curiosity remains that at the time of death, that evidence is woefully wrong, because you’re the least healthy person alive; an extreme outlier. Which means, life expectancy tables are only useful if you’re not actually near death. Their % prediction error approaches infinity as you approach death (and the error is systematically in one direction).
