Grumpy 15 pensions are not abated.
However, you are approaching 60 therefore you won't be on AFPS 15 unless you were younger than 52 years old on 1 April 2019. (Protected rights when 15 introduced given to those aged 45 or older on 1 April 2012). So as you are approaching 60 I suspect that you will on retirement be entitled to a purely AFPS 75 or AFPS 05 pension, which if you rejoin could be abated!

Uncompetitive system
There are unfortunately so many reasons why attracting talent back is stacked against the services; this is just another. The marketplace of people is highly fluid especially when it comes to high quality ones.
I have been approached several times and looked into it seriously one one occasion (on a part time basis) but the offering is so far below the competition that it barley makes a shortlist even if you take an altruistic element/ being part of something/ giving back into account.
It doesn’t matter what the treasury rules about pensions are : asking someone to hand in some family income so that they can take a job is a really bad start.
