Address the elephant in the room

Since we know Stranger Things season four part one picks up just six months after a dripping beast ripped Starcourt Mall apart, this is probably a moot point for now. But here’s hoping season four part two and definitely season five, the final season, acknowledges the fact that its main characters, who started off this adventure as tweens back in 2016, are now lurching close to drinking age. A bigger time gap within the story’s chronology seems like a logical step, and would allow for some much-needed character and story evolution, not just for the kids but for everyone else too.
