What were the lives of the red-headed children like? Were they in the know about the nature of the experiment? I suppose they must have been, but then how could such small kids be such good actors? I’m doubtful about the power of stories versus someone’s experience, but I liked the story :)
It’s explicitly called out that the red-headed children “tended bigger than the rest of us, with more adult facial structures, to the point where you could’ve maybe mistaken them for very small adults in disguise”. I suspect EY’s intention is that they are in fact small adults in disguise.

I missed that!
I had assumed that they were neanderthals.
I had wondered if they were hobbits.
ohhhhh!
I didn’t figure that out. I assumed (incorrectly) that the red-headed children appeared more like adults because they lived in a harsher environment.
