Poppa Bar Abba; FWIW. I’m extremely disappointed with you. Because up until this time, all your posts displayed both, knowledge and logic. I’ve been to many Shuls in my lifetime and in no place did I ever observe that “Gelilah” is given to Nebs, as such. As many posters pointed out that the reason gelilah is given to children is because this is one Mitzvah that they could perform, as opposed to an Aliyah which requires one to be Bar Mitzvah. Your perception must be mistaken. Or you encountered one crazy Gabbai who had this thing against old Bochurim and figured that they’re no good for anything else.
