It's not the only, nor by a long stretch the best reason to be against "ending aging". Human culture fundamentally depends on death and the passage of time. Our myths, rituals, literature and sense of history depend on death. I may be an old romantic, but to me life without the sense of impermanence and transience would be an impoverished life indeed.
