Good correction but she did quote the ancient proverb accurately. I was thinking more of a play on lines Fried Green Tomatoes when 20-somethings steal a parking place and tell Kathy Bates "We're younger and faster" -- she drives into their car and pushes it out of the space and says "I'm older and have more insurance." We do get the feeling. I do like your massage of the proverb in this case.

More like age and skill overcoming youth and treachery....
