Evolution doesn't care. It's a greedy optimizer that loves its local minima. If it happens to optimize for things like quality of life, it's incidental. Humans can do better than that.

I'm baffled by your desire to defend the status quo that involves you and everyone you love dying a long and miserable death before the age of 100. Even more so with the amount of "actual real diseases" that loop back around to aging.
