Have you started to worry about your parents?

Progress is progress.
If you people do not agree with HoreTore's point that old people getting replaced by new people is a good thing, would you prefer:
a. Just one eternal generation of humans with no reproduction
b. Babies! But old people don't die

and why do you think these options would be preferable over death and replacement and what would be the implications?

But, that is not HoreTore's point. HT's point is that humanity constantly improves itself and that the new generation always does better than the previous one(s). Which isn't true. It goes with ups and downs which implies that sometimes, the new generation doesn't do better.

It also depends on the criteria you use. What is "better" for one person, isn't necessarily an improvement for another person. And no matter which criteria you use, it will always be arbitrary and subjective.

Which makes such statements without value whatsoever.
