The two well known risk factors, high blood pressure and smoking, may or may not be associated with "excess work". This article uses the weasel phrase: "is said to" which applies to all sorts of counterfactual claims including the Earth being flat. Simply because something "is said to" does NOT imbue the claim with a factual basis. This claim implies that if he were to work less "excessively" then he would have not died. This presumes he would have reduced or eliminated his smoking (I don't even know IF he smoked, but it is a common habit among Japanese men of his age) and engaged in activities which would have reduced his blood pressure. Aside from being speculation of an alternate reality, the lifestyle factors known to reduce hypertension are: weight loss, decreased salt intake, physical exercise, and a healthy diet. NONE of these are directly related to his work - he could have (hypothetically) reduced his weight, gotten exercise, eaten healthily all without spending any less time working - if indeed he didn't already have a healthy life-style. This claim should be either placed in the context of the ignorant superstition/urban myth that it is, or given some substance by justifying it by describing which *specific* risk factors he had, or it should be removed.98.21.208.72 (talk) 22:50, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
