If the intent of the law was to freeze the age of the child for immigration purposes, they would have clearly stated that as in the case of USCitizen petitioner. The fact that it was not done, leads me to believe that the language was the worst compromise the Congree could agree on.
The most liberal interpretation ( yours ) would cause a tremendous uproar. Maybe it was not politically feasible to freeze the immigration age for vhildren of intending immigrants so clearly in an election year. That is why they have done it in a roundabout way? Actually, the entire mainstream media reported only on the children of USC issue and the Philipino priority date anamoly.
Right now, I believe that the congress is not in the mood to help non-USCitizens( but LPR's). They are not realizing that all the LPR's are few years and one petition away from voting against such myopic politicians.

By the way, I am a derivative "child" under F4.
