I will go even further and say the lifespan of the author should not be a factor at all. Death is random, and one author’s work shouldn’t get more protection just because they happened to have better genes.
(This is not an argument in favor of extending the lifetime of copyright, which IMO is way too long. But the duration should be constant from the time of publication.)
