You answered your own question. When we can't change something (easily), we moralize about why changing it is bad actually. Look at weight, we were well on our way to normalizing "fat acceptance" until Ozempic came out and now everyone is scrambling to get their chubby fingers on it. If an Ozempic for aging came out, everyone who preached about the beauty of mortality would be in line for it along with the rest of us.
Bonus anecdote: You know all those stories about old people who are just ready to die since they lived a full life? Horseshit. Anyone in the medical field has seen just how scared and desperate they really get when you drop cancer news on them, they want every possible treatment to fight for another day of life like anyone else.
