My grandad had dementia before he died and he seemed tormented, afraid and angry most of the time. I don't think living with dementia is a positive experience for people who suffer through it

Agreed. A ‘beautiful simplified present’ is not a universal phenomenology of dementia. It is instead frequently an experience of fear and dread and re-living ancient memories; being stuck in a cycle of believing you are still in a past moment.
