Some other thoughts I have...with the way you have things set up. Players developing really fast, with a young development target...that somehow shifts the Aging timeline also.
I've always kind of wanted more details about how those development settings could potentially affect other things and wondered if there might be some built-in counter-balancing.
If players are "peaking" at 21 instead of 26, maybe that automatically shifts the baseline aging target 5 years earlier also.
Or, maybe the game lowers the chances of a "young" player that has reached their potential within the "who gets hit with a negative TCR" equation...and since a much larger group of your players qualify than most leagues...the TCR gets more heavily shifted to whatever age groups don't qualify for that protection. 24 would make sense as an age where something like that gets lifted.
Basically, your extreme settings could be causing some other thresholds to shift or recalibrate.
I'm also kind of wondering exactly what it is you are wanting out of this league with those settings? What age are you generally seeing players hit full potential? How many players are still around over the age of 30?

We changed to these settings due to around 2100 or so, guys just didn't develop til 26 or so. So players weren't hitting FA til 32 or 33 and FA was pretty weak as most players started to decline around that time and then moreso at 35ish.
These settings fixed that (players developing between 21-25 and then a good balance of some flopping out, others having a good peak then declining in their early 30s, and a few lasting til late 30s) up until seeing this a little bit on OOTP 24 (not enough to be an issue) and then rampant within the last 3 or so months of 25 after some updates.
Also, can't remember if it was said, but we have scouting off so ratings are 100% accurate.
