As is the case with a driver's license, it's the issuer who decides validity (that'd be us in this case). A driver's license contains all sorts of information that is still “valid”. My eye color, age, and height don't change just because my license becomes invalid. [...]
Right, but they do check that your vision is good enough, and that you can answer basic questions. That is why the license expires.
I-Ds don't really have that sort of problem to address. In fact, we republish them without an expiration date as RFCs sometimes.
