Retired old people who aren't just ... busy being sick and dying give back to their communities in HUGE ways. We had someone's grandpa come to our robotics competition to cheer the team on. The old people in my building do all the serious political organizing and man the polls. I'm too busy working being in my 40s and all that.

Raising retirement ages takes away more than just "retirement" ... it makes everything harder.

Far as I'm concerned it should be 59.

From their viewpoint "Nobody wants to work anymore" extends to the 60+ crowd. That's what they're trying to solve.

MUAs are a common feature of technical literature. They can help fields of study in their infancy seem more impressive. They can frustrate and annoy readers.

An effective MUA stands some chance of being decoded from context. That is, it's not too heavy on the "Mysterious" part. A good MUA can be pronounced as a word. (Without being over-precious & trying to spell something.)

Some MUAs are so famous their words are forgotten. But, isn't such a MUA ... necessary ... making it more of a MA?

Took me a lot longer than it should to realize you weren't talking about makeup artists...
