I also rather wish judgement on age wasn't so prominent. One always hears about how the young folks don't have any respect but who's supposed to teach them respect? If they're constantly underestimated or categorized because they happen to have been born later by sheer chance, then wouldn't that cause some resentment to the whole "respect your elders" deal? Part of why the qualifier arises is because elders can't stand to think that the youngsters are doing better than they themselves.
