Honestly yes. We need turnover on the bench. Besides, it's not like we don't have maximum ages for other jobs; IIRC, commercial airline pilots have to retire at age 65 no matter what shape they're in.

No. This would just encourage nominating younger people. I'd rather have a fixed term limit so that age is irrelevant.

No, I'm not interested in age discrimination of this kind. When judges start showing signs of dementia, do you know how they are removed from the bench? Thanks to peer pressure to resign, that's all it takes.
