That's why I labeled it a moral question - there is no technically correct answer, not in the way a scientific question can be answered.
Why would it matter? Well, reasonably good health well into the thirties is much less desirable for our children/decedents than is good health into the sixties. I don't know if that would matter to a lot of people, but it might matter to some people.
