Thank you Michael! Useful as usual! Point well taken wrt TL. Regarding Klemera-Doubal Method note how they include chronological age in their method. This is somewhat controversial and maybe you have already a take on it. It is being discussed in their original paper (doi:10.1016/j.mad.2005.10.004). I think Levine's BA estimators align on the KDM.

Thanks albedo. Ha, I addressed why I also use aging.ai in this video, including the absence of chronological age as one of its biomarkers:
