Leila Nassif's Age?[]

I can't help but notice that the article states that Lelia Nassif joined Tarsus Academy at the age of 6 and "over the next 22 years" came to the position she is in as of Invisible War. This is clearly incorrect, as that would mean she joined the Tarsus Academy in 2050 (two years before DX1). What exactly are the sources for the above information?

Surely it's more likely that Leila Nassif is 22 as of IW (she is mentioned as being young in comparison to her achievements) and that she was accepted into the Academy 16 years prior (in 2056). 86.16.29.151 18:26, March 30, 2014 (UTC)

I checked, and it clearly states that she entered Tarsus Elementary at the age of six, not Tarsus Academy. -- Gnostic (talk) 17:26, April 1, 2014 (UTC)
It wasn't the age she entered (or whether it was Elementry or Academy), it was the year that I took issue with (and thus her modern age). Tarsus (in any form) could not have existed when Leila was six (in 2050), meaning that she must be younger than the age stated in the article. Do we know what the source for her stated age (6 + 22) is? Basically what I'm asking is where did the "over the next 22 years" come from? 86.16.29.151 23:14, April 8, 2014 (UTC)
Never mind, I was able to find the source. It appears to be an in-universe mistake (unless Tarsus predates the Collapse and ApostleCorp merely 'incorporated it's usage' What's more is that it mentions another 4 years at a reconstruction therapy centre making Nassif's age in IW 32 at minimum. Meaning when she entered Tarsus (when she was 6) it couldn't have been later than 2046. Weird.86.16.29.151 23:26, April 8, 2014 (UTC)
