Because what some thinks makes a classic doesn't. Just because a book is old is nt reason it's a classic. For example, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a classic. But it's not that old overall. A classic has to do with the content of the book and not the age of the book. So if we go by age, then we are allowing books to be nominated that are not classics. The only way to do it i to go by content. And that's just too subjective to do so.
