In Luke 18:15-16, "they were bringing BREFH to Jesus...but Jesus said,
"Allow the PAIDIA to come to me..."

One could think from this that Jesus or Luke used the words interchangeably.

Or instead, one could think that, since Jesus wanted to segue to an
application to a broader group of people, he used PAIDION inasmuch as BREFH
is a subset of PAIDION, all in view of the fact that BREFH are not
competent to enter the kingdom of God of their own volition?
