However, since the pontifices were often politicians, and because a Roman magistrate's term of office corresponded with a calendar year, this power was prone to abuse: a pontifex could lengthen a year in which he or one of his political allies was in office, or refuse to lengthen one in which his opponents were in power.

Tetapi, karena Pontifex seringnya adalah politisi dan periode jabatan hakim/pejabat pengadilan Romawi terkait dengan tahun kalender, wewenang ini rentan disalahgunakan: seorang Pontifex dapat memperpanjang lamanya satu tahun ketika ia atau salah satu sekutu politiknya sedang menjabat, atau menolak memperpanjang lamanya ketika lawannya yang berkuasa.
