It would be funny if some of this just had to do with the East Asian tradition of counting newborns as 1, rather than 0 like we do in the West.
Even I doubt it's that dumb, but sometimes researchers miss really obvious things.
Haha, that'd be dumb, but never rule out stupidity to explain things :)
Fun fact, if you're born in December in Korea, you'll be 1 at birth and turn 2 on the first of January. A 1 month old will be two years old.
