I like this framing. I think the more common statement would be 20% chance of death in 10-30 years , and 80% chance of life extension and much better technology that they might not live to see.
I think the majority of humanity would actually take this bet. They are not utilitarians or longtermists.
So if the wager is framed in this way, we’re going full steam ahead.
