I wasn't even saying ageism is not a problem, just making a joke about how a screenshot of some random asshole isn't representative.
That said, I don't think it's ageism to be concerned about whether two guys who are 81 and 77 should be put in the most powerful and stressful job in the world.
The age isn't what matters. It's cognitive ability. Simply looking at the number and saying "Number too high" is 100% ageism.
You don't think the average person has naturally reduced cognitive ability at 70+? I've never researched it I just assumed it declined in general just like eyesight, hearing, response time etc. I'm 40 and all those things have begun declining for me. I'm wiser but definitely not quicker.
