I don't see why people find the 75 year window acceptable. If I show you a Ponzi scheme, of course it looks better if I get to truncate outflows at the same point as inflows. That's why Ponzi schemes can keep going for a while. So yes, things look not so bad if I pretend that the world is going to blow up in 2009, in 2018, in 2048, or in 2083.
