Was the aging of Solidus ever specified? We know this was done specifically for Solid (we can assume the same for Liquid), but the only info we've been given about the genes of Solidus was that he was an identical clone of Big Boss. I've wondered if Solidus was perhaps created through more artificial means and that he was already phsically identical to Big Boss (as to starting his life as an infant)? He looks to be the same age as Big Boss would be during MGS2. That's right, there hasn't been much details to Solidus' pre-MGS2 background other than his days with Raiden in Africa. But then I think he started life as an infant and that will not hinder him from aging faster had he been designed that way.

And based on what we saw so far, I tend to conclude Eli is Liquid Snake if he indeed is someone appeared before.
