It would be unfortunate if we simply existed longer as an elderly person, it sounds like a nightmare. Better to age slower to experience life for longer.

One would wonder if humans would then have an extended adolescence into the 20's or 30's or even longer, or if we would take less risks in life knowing how many years could be lost should we make a mistake.
