The idea that I'm getting that it's purely a legal issue. So a minor
would be anyone who has his own responsibility. I believe that for most
countries to be atleast 18 or up, in the Netherlands it would be 16 or
18 I think.

But as you point out, it doesn't say anything about the capabilities of
the person at hand.

Personally I would care less about legal responsibility issues, atleast
in this country, and look more at the practical side if you can think
someone can handle the equipment you provide them access to.
