Yes. It is like this because they could request being readded immediately, so it's pointless to remove them while they're active.

I don't see why it would be. In the previous years, we have been applying the 2 years rule to all members who weren't devs at removal time, even if they were recently retired.

People can reapply if they really care. Assuming that people who hadn't cared for foundation affairs for over two years, and who afterwards either resigned from being devs or were retired for inactivity, would suddenly become interested and active doesn't seem right. If we keep dead members for years we'll never reach quorum.
