This could go a couple of ways. 1) Ian was truly a child in terms of how long he has been alive and just suddenly got bigger physically. 2) Ian has actually been an adult but his body did not physically develop due to the missing trigger which is MC. I feel like the second option makes more sense because he was keeping up with reading difficult scientific articles as well as college level topics. The one researcher said that he LOOKS like he couldn’t be more than 10 not that he is. It feels similar to how some people are extremely intelligent when it comes to books and studying but then people question if they have common sense or understand how the world works
