In the real world, there are valid objections to term limits: lack of accountability if not working toward re-election, inability of noobs to tackle complex issues, etc.
Neither of the things you listed are valid objections.

Or they could lie their assess off to get elected and have no incentive to at least appear to deliver on campaign promises?
Also- then you create king maker special interests. Without any name brand incumbents that can get re-elected on recognition/reputation, it devolves into a repetitive battle royale of upstarts looking for any way they can to build a war chest

Do you not think experience is worth anything? Do you want to surround yourself with new employees? Do you think you would be productive if you changed jobs every 2 or 6 years? Etc. Sure, there are people in office that I think are unqualified and I think many poor decisions are made with eyes on the next campaign, but I think one term is an extreme cure that would be worse than the disease.
the more churn, the less likely they are to do anything at all ...
