This is why I try to avoid reasoning by analogy. Every analogy is flawed, but some end up making the wrong point entirely.

Height is a physical attribute that cannot be influenced (without questionably unethical means) from any age. A better analogy would be someone picking up a basketball for the first time at 25 and expecting to play at an NBA level.

I agree with everything else you said though.
