I think it's worth demonstrating this in this kind of context to characterize how children adults might be different. There's a lot of interest in aging and what that means, broadly speaking. However, I agree this involves some fairly broad principles. I think you could even say this is kinda how Bayesian inference works too. If you use a [strongly informative] prior, on average you get a better estimate, but you're taking the gamble that your prior applies.
