There is kind of a statistical bias here. Let’s say language creation capability is very age independent. Most of those that create their language early will invest their time in that, masking the fact they would have been just as successful when older. And this effect will grow with age, since they have had more time to hit that milestone. Old language creatives will be more and more likely to have already created their language. So we are progressively under-sampling older language capability. TLDR; There is still hope for me!
