Agree
- Some 80-year-olds are more vital than 50-year-olds
- Mental rigidity is the real marker
- Age is just a number cliché is true
- Curiosity keeps you young
- Physical age doesn't match psychological age
Disagree
- Physical decline has real timelines
- Medicare starts at 65 for a reason
- Body limitations define elderly status
- We need clear categories for planning
- Denying aging is also rigid thinking
