There's something you're missing here though, and that is that the minds in a superintelligent society will also be super-competent at convincing people to stop being luddites. They would probably capable of saying the PERFECT thing to convince virtually everyone, and for those that aren't convinced, they will eventually die off because they presumably will refuse life extension tech as well.
