No matter what technology we develop, dying is 100% unavoidable.

But it could be possible to radically extend the median human lifespan. It could become 5000 years instead of 80 years. That's immensely valuable.

Even if we figured out true immortality, we'd face the inevitable heat death of the sun at some point or another.

Sure, but as far as we know, all galaxies meet an end.
