A point of order might assist in us achieving unanimous consent, and that is that the condition of current or former should also apply to the judge in (a), because we don't want to have the only people who are qualified for this job to be over 75, which is the retirement age. A person could come straight from the bench, and often is appointed straight from the bench, to these positions, which is even more appropriate. So if we were to change both, perhaps we could get unanimous consent for that.
