I don't see why retirement is relevant here. Company's duty is to its shareholders either way.

Agreed but in the case of retired people, that duty hits different. They don't have the ability to go back and earn more money; many are also in cognitive decline.
The duty to every share is the same, it's not really a consideration. It's not like Google has a separate "Greyglers" class of shares.
