The average age isn’t getting any younger, since there are less and less births to replace the dead.
Do you know how average works?
Drop the passive aggressive BS.
Your comment would be true IF old people were dying off and the age of people wasn’t changing. You’d be replacing 80 year olds with babies. However, it’s not so straightforward when you account for the fact that there are new people joining the 80 year old club every day.
Put very simply - if the birth rate dropped to zero today, would the population be getting younger since old people are dying off? Of course not, on the contrary the average age is getting older because there’s more people joining the 80 year olds than the infants.
