Just so you know my comments have very little to do with realism, I agreed that considering this is MGS Kojima could probably explain the situation away. But even considering that, making a child no more than 2 fully capable of looking over BB would require so much explanation I'm wondering if it's worth it.

He'd have to explain how the accelerated aging works on Solidus, seeing as if Eli is Liquid he looks roughly as old as he should be. He'd have to explain why the Patriots thought letting a child look after one their most sought after assets would be a good idea.

Then if he does help BB against the Patriots he'd have to explain or leave part explanation why they'd allow Solidus to become President later. Considering everything else this game has explain, which I'm guessing we haven't seen half of yet, I just don't know if it's worth cluttering up the story just to shoe-horn a character that claimed in a later game that he'd never met BB.
