The caveat is that many criminals in those countries don’t have the capacity for violence that American criminals have.
Also, it’s useless the balk at long sentences because often American prisoners do not end up serving the full sentence for various reasons.
And as you mentioned, those “maximums” aren’t true maximums anyway, so what’s the point? Better to be upfront.

He is probably the worst of the worst and the system knows how to deal with him in a way that makes sense, without having to create special arrangements or exceptions for him. Can you name any American criminal for whom this kind of setup wouldn't be sufficient for?
