(Most) Bureaucrats don’t get a pension after 20 years, so that’s a bit of a red herring.

That might be the case for federal, but a lot of state employees like teachers can get substantial retirement after 20 years.

Please don't conflate State Public Employee retirement systems with State Teacher retirement systems. They each have their own rules.

The teacher retirement systems I know of have rules like (age + years_worked)>=80 ==> full pension benefits.

Retiring after 20y will earn you a smaller monthly and is only possible (under that rule-of-80 above) if you start teaching at age 40. Teachers are much more likely to retire after 25+y (age_start=30, age_retire=55).
