Advantages: Lifetime tenure promotes judicial independence by insulating justices from short‑term political pressure and allows them to build long‑term expertise and continuity in the law.
Disadvantages: It reduces democratic accountability, can entrench particular ideologies or incapacitated justices for decades, and makes vacancies—and thus the Court’s balance—unpredictably political.
