I see no downside to living forever because if the heat death of the universe is truly the eternity I'm doomed to, then I'll eventually become so deprived of sensory input that there would be no difference between life and death.
I mean, true heat death would also imply that even your body is spent. No neurons will be able to fire. No brain activity. You won't be any different than dead.
Thus, any "true" sort of immortality must necessarily violate the conservation of energy.
Therefore, we should investigate immortal entities as potential post-stellar-phase power sources.
Oooh, brand new man made horror beyond my comprehension: immortality as an endless torment, being perpetually harvested as a resource.
Actually, I think Made In Abyss touched on that a bit in its second season
