It would be more technical to say it is only if the median and the mean of the age of death are the same do we have half of the population dying above / below this value.
Plus life expectancy is for "at birth", complicating the picture.
If the data is honest, we should be able to see the effects on this chart in the coming years
Like I said, my argument is only with the trend of lumping every death in with anomalous deaths.
This one is an obese 74 year old who was a rock star at the height of the 'sex drugs and rock'n'roll' era... as I said, at any other time, no one would even question it.
My example was a bit extreme.
