If you're able to find out that a podling will cause problems in the
future, or that its mentors will become inactive, maybe I should hire
you for this lottery betting club ;-)

Apart from that I agree that the board doesn't have cycles to handle
problematic podlings or missing mentors, and as a result whatever
actions it would take would be much harsher than what we do here.
