Honestly I think you're interpreting "age related" differently than the upthread discussion. The point is to renormalize a cause of death to something like "lost years of life". So if you have a preventable death (from smoking, say) that kills people with on average 10 years of life left, that should be less notable than one (maybe homicide) that kills people with 60 years to go on average.

My original comment was in reference to the OP's comment:

> I’m not really interested in how I’m going to die of old age, but what I have to worry about today to avoid an early death.

My point was just that heart disease is primarily not caused by natural aging (the 80% of cases).
