Doesn't that mean that for each one that dies at 30, there may well be another that dies at 70?

Life expectancy is mean not median, and the median wouldn’t work like that either.

Of course, some people loved to 70, I think there would be virtually no circumstances where that would be expected (ignoring ad absurdum takes like “age 69 and 364 days”)
