My example was a simplification, so don't take it to literally.
It's also worth noting that other property rights have no time limit. Except in China, whoever owns that apartment building can own it forever.

This is wrong.
In the UK, property rights are mostly leasehold, just as they are in Singapore for HDB flats.
