Ion, you are not following the argument. It is not when VO2Max is developed (age-wise), but your statement that it is the key to swimming. (I notice, in the thread just before this one, you are again trying to change the topic.)

Okay, I'll go back to the last post, which supports your statement (with hard evidence) that "VO2Max is the key"...

Ummm... okay. :) As AquaGeek said, because the idea is intriguing on a theoretical level, is not hard evidence that it is true.
(I'll get back to you on "anchoring". There is a book I want to reference (ie. hard data), which is not here. I'll post this evening.)
