That's totally fair, and I'll cross that bridge when I get there like everyone else :)

My philosophy is: either I'll live to benefit from technology that can repair the damage caused by aging, in which case health micro-optimizations early in life are not that important, OR this won't be achieved within my lifetime, in which case I prefer a short life with concentrated happiness, vitality and intensity in my youth.

There is some new scientific finding that in deep sleep, fluids from the brain drain out and if that flushing doesn't happen, it might lead to Alzheimer's disease.

You should at least monitor your deep sleep using a smartwatch. Less than 1.5 hours and I would be worried.
