It makes even less sense in the UK where 16 year olds can legally vote and consent to sex, but not listen to explicit songs on Spotify.

Or, in the US, you learn to drive first, at 16, but can’t drink legally until 21. So you get people who’ve been driving for 5 years and confident with their driving ability, learning what their alcohol limits are. Yes, plenty of teens drink illicitly, but I always thought Germany did it better: you get experienced with alcohol and have been drinking for 6 or 7 years by the time you get your license.
