The life expectancy of 75 is an average (of the US population i assume), billionaires are likely to live longer
75 years of nation-wide life expectancy is also likely to include early deaths due to accidents, cancer and such. People who die of "old age" typically do later than 75.
I would say it’s appropriate to loop cancer deaths into the “old age” bucket – DNA getting old and making mistakes replicating seems relevant.
