Why isn’t Medicare gradually phased-in starting at 40 or 50?

Why are my sheltered retirement funds only available penalty-free at 60 and onward?

Can I survive and thrive in tech into my 50s?

re: survival in 50s.

Only if you are by then successful. If not, your career will stall late 30s when you realize tech is age-bound, however immoral or illegal.

They absolutely will hire 2 inexperienced college grads over paying for your 25 years of experience everytime.
