Why is it more advantages to put energy into reproduction? It
seems to me that theres less energy requirement to keep an
organism at homeostasis. Growth requires more energy than
homeostasis. Reversing aging may be futile, but I think
stopping aging is definitely possible, and more economical than
reproduction.
