If the ability to produce and control electricity were to no longer exist, there would be people that would die. Some people couldn't even prepare a proper meal for themselves unless it came pre prepared in a can or box.
While agreeing with your points, this anonymous notes that one cannot predict of what people are and are not capable. The bitch who doesn't even know how to microwave one of those soup-in-plastic-cups could, in an emergency, find the will to stab a sickling child to death and eat hunks of its raw meat.
Though our instinct is semi-optional, we (humans) still have it. The will to do crazy shit.

What?
Wait, can the world cope with technology or not now? I'm all confused!
I think less technology would be a mere inconvenience than anything fatal. I have a clear idea of how I would live without electricity. If electricity were to suddenly disappear there would be initial disarray but people can cope.

40 years and then die from pneumonia, right?

Hey, are you dissin' the way our forefathers lived? Just because they rarely got older than that doesn't mean you gots da right to diss 'em for their inferior lifespan!
(yes, yes. half-arsed attempt. you get the general jist of it anyway.)
Those who can't survive without electricity will become food for those who can. Problem solved!
