So you think that knowledge is infinite? Do you have an argument for that?
Infinite, no. For all I can know there may be an end to all studies.
I am hard pressed to think of any science that is not ongoing though.
The models we have encountered in every discipline or study seems to be ongoing.

So probably they know everything if they are old enough.
No one, I believe, can know everything, regardless of age.
I would not want to be such a person. It would be quite boring.
That is why I argue to lose more than to win, even as I argue to win.
If I lose, a great pleasure, it has to be real.

I agree that the things become boring in intellectual respect if you know everything. But that doesn't mean that they don't know everything.

If they did know everything, then all they would be living for would be death.

No. They can still entertain themselves, by fooling us for example, with the knowledge they have.

True. You make my case of their dead minds.
We already have many of the type you posit.
They are called politicians and preachers.
