The Baby Boom was a real demographic event with important consequences. But if you buy cultural generations at all, you need to split it around 1954 and extend the bits in both directions by a year or two. Pre-1954 is Vietnam generation (still doesn't include Biden), post-1954 Generation Jones.

Demographics are one thing, culture is another. Huge youth cohorts routinely cause social upheavals that create distinct differences between relatively unified experience of early cohort & more diverse experience of later. Same thing happened with Arab Spring.
