gollark: Why?

gollark: Or have a more general solution like transferring minds between bodies so you can just make a new one as needed.

gollark: Not with current technology.

gollark: Or just reconstruct basically all the body from a good template periodically.

gollark: Well, you could presumably fix enough of the problems that people can live an extra 100 years, and deal with whatever issues crop up in the meantime over that time.
