‘i’ve saved more lives than you will ever live’ is kind of a badass-sounding boast considering you only have to save two lives to make it true
“I’ve added more life-years to people I’ve never even met than you will ever experience” sounds a bit more badass and gets around the nebulous issue of what “saving a life” means, plus with the prospect of the target possibly living really long it starts getting properly impressive (of course, the recipients of said life-years should get to live really long as well returning it to the 2 > 1 form, but unfortunately it’s not as likely (…yet! fair-ishly allocated economic growth mindset!) and thus retains the impressiveness when expected life-years are counted)
