Is there a reason Karl always dies around 1460?

See title, I seem to vaguely recall most of my games Friedrich III would die around 1460, is there something hard coded for this? I mean I don't mind because he's a pretty terrible ruler, or like my BBurg game I just started and got HRE pretty quick, but was just curious because this was happening for me way too much.

i think that's just bias, and a string of 'bad' luck? I mean, friedrich did live till 1495 historically... Also he wasn't even Archduke of austria till 1455 but who cares.
Cmon guys give austria a pu over hungary since 1444, austria being lead by ladislaus the posthumous, and styria ruled by Friedrich as the emperor.
@Trin Tragula Can you tell us why this isnt the case? (i know it's a bit off topic, but i'm curious)
Edit: I meant tyrol, not styria. My bad.
