Why does the hadith "none alive today survive after one hundred years" not prove that Jesus (as) is dead?

From this answer: https://islam.stackexchange.com/a/79276/54227 > 19. > "None amongst the created beings would survive after one hundred years. Salim said: We made a mention of it to him (Jabir), whereupon > he said: It means those who had been living on that day." (Sahih > Muslim 2538e Book 44, Hadith 315) > > Even if Jesus (as) was alive at the time of the Holy Prophet (sa) then > he wouldn't be 100 years after that day. > > There are some versions of this Hadith that use the words على ظهر > الأرض, on the face of the earth. However, mufassirin of old such as > Al-Alusi in Ruh-ul-Maani have used this Hadith to infer that Ilyas > (as) and Khidr have passed away, even though Ilyas (as) is also argued > by some to have been lifted bodily to the heavens (which is the > context given by Al-Alusi as he mentions this hadith). So if this > verse only applies to humans physically present on earth (and so Jesus > (as) would be an exception) then how could mufassirin apply this verse > to Ilyas (ra) I want to know how do Muslims who believe Jesus (as) is alive can respond to this argument.
