I think (and IANA astrophysicist) that they are saying because of the density of the sun, the forces of gravity are so strong at the core, that time dilation occurs, making time at the core pass more slowly than time at the surface. Over billions of years of existence, that adds up.
Yeah I was trying to figure out this as well. It’s about gravitational time dilation. The increased gravity at the center of the sun means that about 25,000 fewer years have passed there than at the surface, since the birth of the sun.
Whoever made this needs to learn how to form coherent statements.
Indeed. I’m pretty sure whatever is being communicated is probably interesting, but I can barely grasp it.

This is the correct answer. It’s just frustratingly difficult read.
