Stuff does happen, but if you know you have an exam in the middle of your term and that you won't be able to do anything for like a month, then... don't run.
I think this is a symptom of a bigger problem, which is that we ask/expect too much of our ministers, such that when they are elected many cannot combine the workload with IRL stuff that happens to us all. You only get a small number of people who even
imagine they can keep up with the workload, and so run in the first place - and then some of them find they can't do it after all, and so resign.
To me - as someone who has never even contemplated getting involved in TSP government beyond the Assembly, as I don't have anything like the time that would be necessary for it - the solution lies somewhere in making government workloads more manageable, or else lowering our expectations. Whether that requires a Great Council to achieve, I'm not sure.
