outlining everyone you know and everything you've ever cared about is actually kind of bad

This is always such a spurious argument. The average person already outlives half the people in their life, and I've seen enough happy old people to know it's not necessarily life-destroying.

Obviously we don't have any examples to know how it would affect someone but outliving half the people you know is pretty different to outliving literally everyone you know while also knowing that you always will.
