There will always be "other factors" to one degree or another.
The 2008 recession was not caused by airline pilots over the age of 60, correlation is not necessarily causation

There will be other factors again. Those economic factors will happen regardless. Let’s not try to fix what’s happening in the economy with an age extension because when the economy goes south the age extension is going to hurt twice as much.
