« He’s nice to look at, but not good on the ears. »

How hard would it have been to write « He’s easy on the eyes, not so much on the ears »???

Apologies if I got this wrong but Abby’s grandpa, who is 68 but everyone in the book acts like he’s 90, moved in with them after his wife died -before Abby was born- so when he was around 50?! Maybe family dynamics are vastly different here culturally than where I live but this just sounds weird. Did he not still have a job? Do we assume that one’s life stops after 50 (let alone 68)?!
