That's very interesting. But I think it probably is the fact they have fresher more youth receptors. If you think of when kids touch warm things and say it's too hot, it's a similar concept. Their eye receptor will fire more strongly reducing the main effects of the illusion. Although, if you are on a bigger screen, it may be that it's your eyes that are failing. Bigger screens or zoomed in this illusion breaks.
