Well, hope they won’t change the rules around that if it does still exist by the time you retire. Though generally such things aren’t done retroactively I believe. Once you’ve earned it, you’ve earned it. Even if rules change for future folks. At least in sane countries, but of course we’re talking about the US…

These rules aren’t set by God. Earning it is pretty meaningless.
Rules set by god are just as flaky as any other. Moreso once you realize god doesn’t exist.
