A direct evaluation is by looking at "age at last class shift" by age, for p25/50/75, as the figure 👇 shows.

Sure, about 25% do reach maturity after 35, but p50 & p75 show substantive transitions after 35 👉 Majority of people don’t reach class maturity.

Figure 👇 shows, on average, how class changes occur during the working career (age 15-64). Most of the action (changes) is before ages 15-35, but substantial shift is also seen after age 35.

This does not resonate well with the class maturity assumption…
