Anyone notice this? Or that on Meta it was listed and used to desysop a lot of old, old admin accounts with no activity? It seems silly that it took so very long for this to happen. I do love how those like Abd fought tooth and nail for it to happen at Wikiversity. I'm rather glad that they finally fixed the problem on Wikipedia.

Why not have developers make so that sysop accounts that are inactive for one year become automatically de-sysopped?

Because (a) that would make sense and (b) having an automated process that removes sysop bits will only lead to ZOMG SKYNET!

Remember all the stupid idiotic arguments against having bot accounts with sysop flags?
