Eh, most levelling systems are totally unrealistic and it's best not to think about them too much. If I had to explain them, I would say that at the start of the campaign, the PCs were blessed by the gods with tremendous innate talent. It doesn't matter if one PC had a hundred more years of experience than another because until the campaign started, none of the PCs were talented enough to be extraordinarily good at anything.

But it's so much funnier to picture elves as spending 40 years in diapers.
