Brokenness = potential energy. Anything badly broken is a dam holding back a lake of unrealized desires. A startup that can bore a hole through such a dam can liberate all that energy.

Preventing disease will reduce some costs for sure. For example, the estimate is that about $800B is spent worldwide per annum on Alzheimers. An actual cure would thus have a net present value of about $20Trilion, an astonishing sum.

I suspect similar cost benefits would happen from serious prevention of heart disease and the like. However, none of this fixes stops traumatic injuries and other acute events. As medicine improves, more ambitious (i.e. more expensive) attempts to save people are common.
