Also, I would like to see proof that if this is true, that somehow it is
a "bad thing".  Don't people want experienced developers creating
software?  Right now this is one of the largest strengths of Linux, the
amount of experience working on the kernel is more than any other
operating system has ever had in the history of computing.

Don't you want people who understand the problem area working on it?  Or
do somehow you think that once you have reached 40 years old, you
shouldn't be programming anymore?
