"And maybe this is just an obvious, uncontroversial conclusion"

I think the opposite conclusion is nextish. Prop?

"too much of the game is unintuitive and/or requires vast experience and adult sensibilities to master."

There have been players who became WC in 2 - 3 years. So the vast experience with the game can be obtained by age 14.

"but no kid, no matter how talented at languages, can write worth a crap)."

Now that I realize the eloquence with which an adult can write I am swayed to that conclusion.
