So effectively we're down from 5 years to 1 year also for the main
key, as a mandatory requirement? That is not what I have perceived
as the consensus in the discussion so far.

It isn't complicated in the current version of GLEP 63 ("5 years
maximum"). Simply keep that wording, or moderately shorten it, to
something like 3 years, or 2.25 years. (Or if you prefer round
numbers, 800 days, or 70000000 seconds.) :-)
