This is my view, that what matters is the experience over a more narrow span of years that a full phase of life, and that this span tends towards the beginning of the phase of life.
I don't think he is changing from the model.
In Strauss & Howe, at least in Generations, the phases of life create the generational constellations that predict what the turnings will be like over a period of time. That doesn't mean that the turnings create generations in the same way.
I believe they say the generations are created based on coming of age experience. That seems to me to be the same thing you and Someguy are saying. One isn't still "coming of age" at 35.
