Is it OK to have two nodes of the same age?

When running a baby-fleming with 15 nodes of 10Gb each, I decided to manually add a few more nodes.
I noticed this…

Is it OK to have two nodes of age 64?

Yes, it’s fine.

I’ll go and worry about something else then…

How many nodes should it take to engineer a split?
I’m at 37 of 10Gb each and counting…

EDIT: 35 and counting nodes 29 and 31 are still retrying after 3 mins ← not sure why this would be as this is all on one box
