Killing people who keep abusing that position of power within an exact amount of time however would either get rid of the position or stop the abuse eventually.

There's only so many times a person in a very specific position can be struck by lightning or have a heart attack before everyone sees that position as cursed or becomes superstitious about it.

I mean, dictators have historically often met with a rather grisly end (Mussolini shot and hung upside down by his toes, Hitler blowing his own brains out, Gaddafi sodomized with a bayonet) and that doesn't seem to stop people from pursuing the same power.

We're talking year long consequences, after being in power for years. And then the next leader doesn't meet said fate.

Every month though? Different story. Especially if it's something like getting struck by lightning
