RBG called it in this Oct. 2014 interview with Elle.

I’m not sure how to ask this, but a lot of people who admire and respect you wonder if you’ll resign while President Obama is in office.

Who do you think President Obama could appoint at this very day, given the boundaries that we have? If I resign any time this year, he could not successfully appoint anyone I would like to see in the court. [The Senate Democrats] took off the filibuster for lower federal court appointments, but it remains for this court. So anybody who thinks that if I step down, Obama could appoint someone like me, they’re misguided. As long as I can do the job full steam…. I think I’ll recognize when the time comes that I can’t any longer. But now I can.

I’m sure there’s some contradiction heightening argument to the effect that if she had stepped down in 2014 it would be excellent news for buggrit millennium hand and shrimp, but I’m glad she didn’t retire.
