Could you add age and health to the person's profile?

When someone fills out the calculator answering questions about their own personal situation, there are no questions about age or state of health. Since these can have a big impact on disease risk, I think they should be added to the respondent's profile.

Thanks for the idea, @Bastette54!

If someone wants to look into this, let's talk through the approach. We'd of course need to get the right research integrated into the model and whitepaper.

Also, though, I think we should maintain or improve the overall balance of ease of use of the calculator and spreadsheet. Would this add more information than some of our current questions? If so, can we retire those questions in favor of these? Does actionability factor into the decisions of what questions to include? 🤔
