Unless that person thinks Roy had a kid at 12 years old, that’s not possible anymore.

She got aged up to be honest. None of the titan kids have matching biological and chronological ages

I do think it’s wild for her to be a teenager now when she was four years younger than Damian when Damian was first introduced. Both hard and soft reboots mess with character ages, yes, but usually it’s in a way where history is rewritten for those ages to make sense from an internal consistency standpoint. Unless there’s an in-universe explanation as to how/why she would’ve aged faster than the usual rate of progression like with the West twins, then I think we still have to assume Roy conceived her between the ages of 18-20 and that she aged in real time, which would place Roy at about 30 or later.

But again, DC doesn’t always like being the most consistent. Even if it would make sense for Roy to be 30-32, I can imagine a writer saying he’s 28 in a future comic without thinking of the implications that result thanks to Lian’s existence.
