How does immortality affect the discount rate? Just because you or I will die, doesn't stop our heirs (or companies) from collecting income from assets.

I'd suggest that discovering immortality might have the opposite effect, it would only bring more uncertainty about the future.

Sure, I'm not trying to argue about how to appropriately price the rate; just that it's variable.
