The study highlights that despite improvements in average life expectancy, the maximum lifespan has not increased, indicating stagnation in human aging interventions.
William Mair emphasizes that while we've effectively reduced early deaths and increased aging populations, this has resulted in greater prevalence of age-related diseases.
Historical data provides a 'glass mortality floor' for human lifespan with current medical technologies, challenging researchers to find ways to potentially break this limit.
The authors of the paper believe these lifespan limits aren't fixed barriers, suggesting there's still potential for breakthroughs in human longevity.
