We already have age limits at the lower end. Why are people so against age limits at the upper end?

I disagree, even if you're not senile you should be moving out of the way for younger generations. Wisdom doesn't count for much if you're completely out of touch with modern problems (see climate change, LGBTQ+ rights, "series of tubes" guy). Part of the reason millennials have been infantilized and poor for so long is that boomers won't relinquish power in government or business.
