He was written to be a stand in for Ridley Scott. Once you realise this all his decisions and motivations make sense.

Mass celebrity die-offs will start happening soon
Celebrity really went into overdrive in the 60s, 70s, and 80s with the ubiquity of television and other forms of mass media that have been preserved and disseminated. We went from 3 channels to hundreds of channels with cable in the 80s and 90s, and now you have streaming shows on top of that. Movies continue to pump out each year. Youtube spawned internet celebrities. Legions of musicians became household names in the 50s/60s/70s and continue to this day. And the people who came into prominence during that timeframe are now in their 70s and 80s.
We're quickly nearing a point of mass celebrity die-offs, where someone notable will be dying every few days for the rest of our lives.
At a certain point, you have a shitton of celebrities on the planet, some who will die of old age, and some who will die young, and it'll just happen a lot.
