My first thought was “Oh, crap!”. Then I told myself, “Apply a reversal test: if something happened that made it impossible for anyone to survive over 60, would you have thought ‘Well, at least this means dictators can’t stay in charge too long’?”
It depends on how specifically it looks like in the alternative universe of the reversal test.
For example if it means “Stalin lives 6000 years, his henchmen live 600 years, other people live 60 years”, then “everyone lives 60 years” could be an improvement.
