Saying that the main character should have been older is like saying that the biological/physical age is always the same as the psychological age. What about all of the child geniuses of the past and present? Writers, poets, singers, country-rulers, actors etc.? Or what about the more grim examples of present times like child pimps, drug addicts, prostitutes and murderers? The added beauty of EG is the realism of the main character where his youth is not being hold against him.
