Because it didn't. It regulated it, at best. Magic book says what magic books says regardless of whether a person believes or not. Being generous, it's the "Grass on field, play ball" theory of sexual maturity and informed consent, which allows for a person to purchase and own a child in advance of their usefulness..whatever that may be to any given pedo.
Why anyone thinks that this is particularly praiseworthy is beyond me. Personally, I don;t see the point in asserting this bundle of slimy rules if there's going to be one great big caveat to them all. If you can't or don't want to abide by them..just go buy a girl. Totally kosher.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Is the concept of prime strength to face life, mental maturity to be responsible over how an orphan can spend his own wealth given by the state, and mental guidance with respect to facing life, all ambiguous subjective concepts? Those have been equated with age of when marriage is allowed.
Sure the age can change and vary person to person, that is why Quran doesn't specify an age, and among the reasons as well is that it changes in different circumstances and the type of factors in life and situation.
And Moses was said to be given wisdom AFTER he reached maturity.
I would say while subjective it's also very objective in the given circumstance or time. The Quran put's in perspective with orphans. When is a orphan ready to face the world and be left to themselves and spend their money as they see fit?

You're only telling me that, in your opinion..child brides and sex slaves are a feature...not a bug.

Using that as a standard is just laying the groundwork for men to abuse it, and ultimately, abuse girls who aren't really mature enough to be consenting.
The Quran is just opening the floodgates to a lot of officially sanctioned evil with such loose and subjective standards.

Wherein both will be those (maidens) restraining their glances upon their husbands, whom no man or jinn yatmithhunna (has opened their hymens with sexual intercourse) before them (Quran 55:56, Mushin)

Do you think it's reasonable and fair Atlas, for me to be sent to hell for (a) not coming to that conclusion or (b) not wanting to be a Muslim even if Allah exists?
This question is open to people from other religions too. I'm not interested in joining any religion, or worshiping anything, regardless of whether any of their claims are true.
Do I therefor deserve to receive a lesser afterlife (possibly involving torture)?
Do I deserve it for coming to the "wrong" conclusion based in my assessment of the evidence?

Okay, well I would hold God to a higher moral standard than humans, not a lower one.
He tortures people who are illogical. That’s absolutely absurd, just stop and think about that. I want nothing to do with such a sadistic, petty maniac.
PS: the sun burning someone, or them being killed by jumping off a mountain are non-sentient results of cause and effect. If the sun was intelligent and was burning people just because it wanted to, that would be just as absurd and monstrous.

You can't attribute human traits to him.
That's the difference of Islam from Christianity. God in Islam is not even drawn for the same exact reason: attribution of human traits to him is Anthropomorphism that is not valid at all.

The sun burns. That's what it does.
God tortures creations that make logical faults. That's what he does. Also he has mercy on the creations that believe in him.
