If there were a hard ceiling of age that no one could circumvent it would put the careers of those in love with power to have another perspective. Loving power that blinds us to the consequences to win at any cost. Life is not a zero sum game of time we all will live through versus the murderous competition that nations are in. Through generation after generation of unending war. The fact that at 75 and you're done. The office holder, judge, district attorney, president of the U.S. of Ass holes, 75. and you are done at this position. Execute plan for the ancient race to death with however much time is left. Power absolutely corrupts the powerful. They become monsters with a pocketbook.

Rather than gambling on how long a judge would live we would all know that after the cutoff age then this person must stop whatever they're doing to play god.
