The "grownups" reference was snide and dismissive of the great work done by young founders - I should not have used it.
For context, I was comparing the origin of Atlassian and Workday. Atlassian was started by two 22 year olds through a sizeable credit card debt. Workday was started by a 65 year old ex-PeopleSoft CEO with his funds and an additional $15M in VC finance.
"Mature" would have been a better suited word. Thank you for calling me out on it.
