Saerules:
I'm just asking of a way of judging consistently other than age. It is certainly not perfect, and could be far better, ideally. Yes I know you're an existentialist. But I am simply saying that until you can suggest an alternative to the at least consistent way of judging by age, then all we've got is an observation that the current way is far from perfect - we still haven't got an alternative.
If you've already given a way of judging consistently that's an alternative to the at least consistent way of judging by age - a rule manageable by law - then I have still missed it and I apologize.
'Just' idealistic is not an insult . I didn't "call you" anything, I am just saying that until we have a realistic alternative then this is speculation. It's absolutely fine if you are only speculating (as the existentialist that you are) and don't have an alternative, but it's not clear to me whether you are or not. Do you already know of a better way, an alternative that's better?
I am not dismissing alternatives and saying they "couldn't work", I'm saying that I am yet to see an alternative that is applicable and that could. I am certainly not singling out the possibility entirely, I am not committing the Argument From Ignorance fallacy here.
