it sounds like you haven't heard of the Social Contract of Tolerance: those who don't abide by the terms of the contact are not covered by it.
I like that framing because it entirely removes the paradox.

Instructions: Lego uses a wordless universal design language for instructions. Younger, less experienced builders need more details called out in each step.

Things that are impacted by the age rating for Lego:
Number of pieces: younger builders can't be expected to have the patience to assemble hundreds of pieces
Counting skills: sets like Wall-E that have treads require the ability to accurately repeat a task many times
Techniques used in construction: display sets may be more fragile or more difficult to assemble by smaller bodies. Technic sets may have many smaller parts that require specific orientation.

I find it particularly difficult to explain to my kids why I want them to stop watching it without letting on that it annoys me, because I don't want them to suddenly realize they can irritate me on-demand.

thank you for asking; I've got the exact same situation and haven't had the spoons to go find a good solution since it's just a personal project.
I'd hoped to have a GitHub action trigger a build and upload of some sort. if you do find a decent setup, please share!

I've been meaning to do a write-up of z-index for years now, and this just reinforces one of my recommendations which is to always use an explicit stacking context via `isolation: isolate`
