No. On average it's 3.9% each year
Year 1.....96 out 100
Year 2......93 out 100
Year 3......90 out 100
Year 4......87 out of 100
Year 5 .....84 out of 100
Year 6..,...81 out of 100
Year 7......78 out of 100 left
Year 8......75 out of 100 left
Year 9......71 out of 100 left
Year 10....68 out of 100 left
So just at year 10 only 68% of policies are still in force
At year 20 about 45%
At year 30 maybe 35%
So after 30 years of age only 35% of policies bought 30 years before are still in force.
These numbers aren't exact......and I just took approx 3.9% less each year in my head....but you get the idea

Of course a certain % of these policies will pay a death benefit like you said.
And if your number is right of 1.2% a year and not sure if it is.......then you would still have a net lapse rate of 2.7% every year.
So at year 30 only 44% are still in force.
It's probably less
