Yuuuuup - welcome to the actual truth to term limits and limiting office pensions! People get won over by “oh term limits are good, gets rid of the bad ones quicker!” and “this is so corrupt!” but then they forget about what the actual macro impact is.

Similarly why you should never take at face value folks who push for Congress to not get pay during a government shutdown: it just puts pressure on lower income & lower wealth Congresspeople to break while those who are independently wealthy can afford to wait it out.
