I wonder how different society would be if the Founders weren't such weebs about the Romans and just called the Senate the "Council of Elders" as it would be in English?

Wait Senate is just elders?

Yeah "Senex" is the more general term for "old man", "senator" is someone who's *professionally* old (so, yes, "elder")
