That can be said about any period in life. It’s just a matter of perspective and circumstances. The best years are never the same for different people.
That’s true, but I think that for the overwhelming majority of people, their childhoods and young adulthoods were at the very least good years, even if they’re not always the best. They are years that contain significantly more good than bad for most people. So if you create a new adult who never had a childhood, and whose lifespan is proportionately shorter, they will have a lower total amount of wellbeing over their lifetime than someone who had a full-length life that included a childhood.
