Calling it a law overstates the strength of its claim, I think. I'd call it a rule of thumb--and there's a limit to how much longer it'll be useful.

I'd also put what you've said this way: Moore's Law enables rather quick obsolescence. That's a technical observation--mandates fall into the political and economic realm.
