Not that much of a compromise, really:
- Now the community maintainers can set the community to 18+, which will
   have the same effect without requiring users to make their birthdate
   visible.
- Even before that became an option, users could choose to display only
   their birth year, which would delay entry by at most 1 year after their
   full birthdate would give them access (for those born on Jan. 1)
