If I understand it correctly, if that happens, then anyone could buy here with no age discrimination, including folks with young children

I am not saying this is happening or arguing for any changes, just discussing how I understand the law.
It is unlikely there would be such a shift toward the younger people ever outnumbering the older 55 and older crowd. TV is geared for 55+ and is easily saturated with us old(er)folks.....that is why I say common sense would prevail i.e. the lifestyle of TV just will not appeal to the "younger" folk.

As a hypotheis one could conjur up what if.....and that is fine, however the old farts will not be outnumbered let along do a reverse Pareto (80-20 law).
