I missed this, but very solid points. Your last sentence is pretty much why I pointed out how broad the statement "development / design" is.
Unless he's a prodigy, at 18 he doesn't have much real world experience doing dev for stuff at scale, so yeah, he'd definitely be better off in a more junior role working under someone more experienced.
The only exception would be if he did that good, ole fashioned market research and maybe discovered a way he could develop a product / idea better, then runs with it.
