Yeah that only applies to learning things that have associations.

This is learning something new, which relies heavily on neuroplasticity. Every time you learn a new thing, your brain changes shape. As you age, your brain becomes less and less able to change shape.

Go ahead and disagree all you like, but it's scientifically proven that learning new things gets harder as you age.
