I don't think life can be evaluated as a snapshot in a moment of time. Life is a process, and it affects a population. I think even the most conservative definitions may agree on that.

Antifragility plays well with this definition: it doesn't describe the state, but the potential and the ability to change. Taking into account the huge populations, and the fact that only a couple individuals must survive hardship in order for life to prevail, I can see the antifragility.
