this age thing is a good point....
For starters, 18-20 is an age where you can't be the big badass besides the intelectual immaturity, there is also the physical one.... you'll physically peak at 24-27, so main characters that are supposed to be saving the world on strengh alone should fall more in that zone.
Intelectually, it makes no sense to have the 16yold wiz super inteligent kid.... a 35 yold would have more maturity and most likely better physical capacity.
In all, I believe JRPGs should have characters ranging from 23 to 40 with occasional exceptions (great wizard X or the teen bearing the sign (like Link), but definitely not the whole party at 15-20...
