I'm sorry if I misinterpreted you, but your post came across to me like you were making an outrageous claim to try and "prove" how much better your sourdough is. In other words: a silly attempt at one-upsmanship.
No two starters are the same, and determining who has the better starter is a matter of taste, nothing more. IMO, age does not guarantee a better flavor. Flavor comes from the particular combination of yeast and bacteria in the starter. (And that can change over time.)
