So many times you're in a situation where you're on the legal right but enforcement is out of your reach due to the cost not meeting the benefit of just being screwed over.

You can make the logical leap well within 1 human lifetime that the moon is a good time keeper. It's very good to know how many moons you have until winter.

Life extending technology? Cryosleep? Maybe some billionaire teen authoritarian prince who'll have their organs swapped out when they get old is reading this?

Another fun fact, everyone reading this thread right now will almost certainly be dead before it does make its full orbit in 2172.

They still had previews for her birthday special running in the theater the day she died and the audible awws and some soft nos followed by silence from everyone in the room was a morose intro to the movie.

Less people with power means less groups to appease to concentrate power.

You want to disenfranchise a lot of groups. The more active powerful groups, the less able a government can control people. That includes minorities, LGBTQ people, the disabled, any smaller religious groups, etc. Women are no 1 though as that takes away half right off the bat.
