Seems to me that the solution to that is already built in, since G has been clear since day one that the Method may not work for everyone, and a pretty key component to a witch touching the Force seems to be said witch really wanting to do so (which is not explicitly stated in the existing documentation, but should quickly enough prove the 'not work for everyone' caveat,) so witches who want to retire should hopefully not have too hard of a time doing so. Plus a side effect to many of the best and most motivated witches being able to lengthen their careers would be lowering the pressure to recruit new blood somewhat, at least once they get past skeleton crew levels.
