Pew made a cardinal mistake starting the Millennial generation too early, because they considered the Gregorian year 2000 terribly significant. Thus Millennial traits got confused with Xennial traits. Then they started "gen Z" in 1995, lumping together Civics and early wave Artists because both lack Nomad traits. The "generation A" they start in 2012, represents core Artists, parallel to true Silents born in the 1930s.
2025 is a good provisional beginning date for generation B, the neo-Missionaries, which might be called Artemisians if the Artemis program becomes real. Artemis, the goddess of wild nature, is a good patron for romantic rebels against the 21st century.
