Well there never has been so what's new?

Moving the retirement age upwards is what's new. For quite some time
before, it was moving in the opposite direction.

But your "snag" is the same whatever the retirement age. So nothing is
new other than a new opportunity for you to make yet another irrelevant
comment.
