The keyword is "average." - It doesn't necessarily mean people as a whole are guaranteed to live longer. It's a common misunderstanding when talking about life expectancy. Also, expectancy just means "pretty sure we're right, it should be (fill in the blank for whatever topic)." It doesn't mean guaranteed.
