Dude’s in his early 50s. There’s no excuse for him not knowing the difference.

I know people in their 30s that don't know the difference between browsers. I know many 20 year Olds that call the internet "wifi" and I know people who think chrome and the internet are the same thing.

Age hasn't got anything to do with it.

Exactly, it's not about age it's about professionalism. A judge should have an abstract understanding of the concepts and objects at the center of the trial.
