This became popular after Malcom Galdwell's Outliers.

Indeed. That book was published in '08? Which means redshirting will become more and more prominent after the '22s (earliest 4-5 yo's supposed to start kindergarten when book came out were born in '03-'04)? There are places where school districts seemingly encourage this, and not JUST for athletic advantage. Afterall, school district academic performance metrics will likely be better when 10yo's take the 9yo standardized tests and so on. Just sayin'...
