I think very few people realise how unnatural our present lives are. For example, before industrialistation, lateness for a meeting was measured in days, with just one often being deemed acceptable. At least one of the ancient Greek philosophers wrote against schedules as a concept. Now we schedule to the minute, or even second if you're a silicon valley jerkoff.
Medical care, lots of food, and the opportunity to do things like fly or understand the universe seems worth it, though.
