In some news which may be depressing to immortalists but not surprising to most physicists, the claims by some transhumanists of immortality are incorrect. To put it another way, unless consciousness can be extracted physically and moved from one body to another it is not possible according to the math to stop the body from aging.
There is an inverse relationship where if you find a way to remove cell senescence you also increase the risk of cancer. What isn't known is why some species like turtles or lobsters do seem to live nearly forever. Why doesn't the math work with all species in the same way or if it does then what is slowing the rate of aging in some of these non-human species?
this article may have some legs. Consciousness rules everything.
Transhumanist immortality for the very few anyway and for paranoid as cyber threats will worsen,,, science should prolong life UNTIL ready to meet with the Creator, death should ultimately be voluntary.

As always your post is magnificent, and when comes to science I learn to explore new ideas with an open mind, many of the theories coming up everyday can't be proven, but all them serve to remind us to never stop asking questions and praticing thought experiments to answer them.
All Best,

From an evolutionary point of view, not dying would be a problem more than a dream. Different species have different lifespans depending on their niche in the food chain and ecologic role. Some may just be random.
