What are you talking about? Plenty of laws discriminate based on age. Like, the minimum drinking age, the minimum voting age and the minimum age of consent

This doesn't discriminate based on age. This creates a permant class of adults who may exercise a freedom and those who mayn't.

Are there any examples that increase by one year every year?

Yes - New Zealand introduced this policy first.

New Zealand likely doesn't have an equal protection clause in their legal system.

So the only thing to compare itself to is basically itself. The NZ law that it is emulating is not even a year old, so it hasn't exactly given any data on that in between generation that hasn't yet been created. I'm not saying it won't work, I'm just pointing out that this is the only really comparable law.
