It's not just about living a few years longer or the obsessive fear of death, it's a real and serious quality-of-life issue *right now*. Trans fats disrupt the omega-3 pathway, causing severe skin rashes in some people (myself included) and other inflammatory symptoms in other people (asthma/allergies, etc).
