Finding a good Actor who suits the role is a difficulty in itself. Hence, Age becomes just a number. Us viewers can only get used to it. *Sigh*

However, when something important to the plot changes, like making Harry's parents and Severus look older than they were supposed to be, it takes away from the idea that they were supposed to do what happened young.

I used to not care about it but then I realized it made me have weird perceptions on age.
Also, it made my expectations be very unrealistic. And I don't see why they can't just cast people that are between a certain, smaller age range.
