Being alive isn't automatically OK, which was the point. Mostly, it's annoying and worrisome. Occasionally, it's the only hell we actually know.

"It is practically impossible to teach good programming to students that have had a prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration." Guess who. :P

BS, the World Wars bled the British Empire dry, India had a modernly trained and proven military, and several VIOLENT resistance groups were swelling and awaiting the official release of an old leader, which was going to start shit whether they released him as they were supposed to or dared to welsh.

The age of conscription was 18 (or lower in even early times) before. They just lowered the voting age since they were embarrassed to be sending non-voting "kids" to die. Even odder considering they generally regarded adolescents as adults in older times yet still pulled voting "maturity" bullshit, but, hey, they historically didn't want the general populace voting at all. That includes the "founding fathers" and their self-electing socialite circles.
