In conventional US/UK/Colony (I'm not qualified to assert any wider than this) usage age in years is integer down to about 5 years. Below that at some point age in years becomes fractional or is given in months down to about 8 months. Below that at some point ...

As a general thing I am irked by the misapplication of less/fewer, but in the case of age I'd generally treat years as integer.

Oh, and age is not float because there are ages that can't be represented by floats, or doubles for that matter, or any any way at all without invoking unbounded numbers.
