That’s kind of the premise of the John Scalzi book “Old Man’s War”. In the book, they take elderly people (aka Wise people), and put their minds/memories into young fit bodies. This, in theory, creates soldiers who are both Wise, and Young/Fit.
John Scalzi is an amazing author. You’ll love it. Another good one by him is The Dispatcher. There’s even an audiobook of this narrated by Zachary Quinto
Huh. A lot of the Keiko/ O’Brien squabble episodes of DS9 are going to be easier to watch, with that idea in place. He’s not divorcing or fixing his marriage, because he can simply outlive her and do better next time.
(Hope that sounds convincing, cause hell if I know)

Indeed. And let’s not forget “The Kaiju Preservation Society”, and “Red Shirts”!
I don’t know about you, but O’Brien would certainly know.
Of course he does. He just doesn’t want her knowing.

She’s more like a pet to him
