> Peak HN

I'm really not sure what that means.

In any case, you think what I posted is "peak HN", seemingly as a derogative comment. Then, you say I did it "in response to a claim that slowing down is associated with aging and diminished capacity", without noticing that said claim had been done in response to a person saying they intentionally slowed down.

Not due to diminished capacity. Not due to aging. With thoughtful intent.

Then asked why slowing down must be stigmatised, and GGP answered with this correlation, which clearly doesn't track in this case. Is that not a spurious correlation? And one that leads to preconceptions and stigma nonetheless.

Why does the fact that a all people slow down with age mean we must stigmatise slowing down?

What other conditions that correlate with old age must we stigmatise?

You literally linked to a website that overlays two unrelated graphs that look similar on top of each other. And now you're blaming others for coming to the obvious conclusion that you think "moving slower" and "growing older" should appear on that website.
