Dynasties still have the effective term limit of the ruler’s lifespan. Term limits add dynamism to a system, with new men and women bringing new ideas. Death does not guarantee liberty, but it does change. Change preserves the possibility of liberty and not the thing itself. A monarchy is one of the least optimized examples, but forever leaders would be worse, tailoring an entire political system around a single person’s nature. Term limits do not guarantee good governance, but they prevent consolidation of power and stagnation. But term limits are just a law and can be overturned as they have been in some countries.
