They need a steady stream of living people to induct, so the town can get the revenue from the inductions ceremonies. Also, prior generations (with some exceptions) have had decades of inductions and ballots already so it makes sense to skew to those who have been eligible 20 times rather than 50 times. With a great many of the 90's/00's players soft banned for steroids, I expect a big lowering for the 70's and 80's guys over the coming years.
