OK, so what age should we use for the cutoff limit? By the way, age is
an extremely poor basis for judging intelligence. There are 7 year olds
with IQs over 150 and 25 year old imbeciles. Maybe we should put a
notice on the handbook page requiring a minimum IQ level with the
appropriate experience level before allowing a user to view said pages.

Then again, perhaps we should just remove the handbook all together and
let everyone figure it out for themselves. No dumbing down at all
required. We certainly would not want to over do the 'friendly'
concept. I suppose some of use, you obviously, knew it all when you
started out.
