4. It is possible things may work out differently, as with any prediction, but this one is given with a fair amount of confidence given the obvious demographic data and economic trends.
You could say, yes, it predicts that Adder will be right at some point in the more distant future. That point, however, appears to fall into Keynes' "long run" where "we'll all be dead." The study supports my theory that you, me, everyone here, will get to live the majority of the rest of our lives through what I'd call "the interim."
I don't plan on seeing 2060.
