Not a smoker or wannabe one but if someone is just one year behind in their age, they'll never be able to legally smoke with this setup.

Yes, that's how both time and math works.

Cool things that have historically worked and not made things worse: Prohibition.

If he wanted it to work he could make cigarettes more lethal. Kill you in a couple of months type of thing.

(Clearly not a serious suggestion in case you wonder)
