What is the most significant finding of this study regarding age and heat-related mortality in Mexico?

In Mexico, from 1998-2019, significantly more young adults (18-35) died from heat than older adults (50+). At high temperatures and humidity (80s Fahrenheit, 50% humidity), there were 32 heat-related deaths of people under 35 for every death of someone 50 or older. This contradicts prior assumptions about heat vulnerability.
