I mean that was a pretty standard response at the time, so maybe Wolverine is just echoing the attitudes of the time?
I do wonder this about immortals, do they live long enough for the white cells in their brain to solidify into pure inflexible dark grey matter, or are they in a constant state of flux that their attitudes change on a whim depending on their surroundings (essentially, forever mentally children)
At least in wolverines case, he isn’t truly, fully, immortal. His healing factor eventually slows to the point he gets old and dies. In the case if true immortality like Mr. Immortal, it is most likely part of the power that gives them immortality to also keep the body roughly the same, i.e in working order. Mentally they all probably go insane after a few hundred or thousand years, but the comics do not cover such large periods or accurately reflect the mental state.

Isn’t it usually that it gets interfered with, and that does him in?
