Mentioning a similarity to past successful decisions seems like it qualifies as “constructing a more contextually specific argument than ‘you’ll understand when you’re older’”.
I guess, but the explicit comparison is usually pretty indefensible. “Isn’t this actually more like decision w, where the opposite choice was correct?” would be a natural response, and one I wouldn’t have any counterargument for.
