As a respected journalist, he is privy to studies which we are not.
A journalist is expected to source information he uses coming from a study.
I never saw anyone encourage the girls to wait.
If you look-up AZ’s comments in the CR from 2 years ago, he was encouraging girls parents to hold their daughters from dating in their earlier years. See for example (there were other more explicit but these are the first I found now):
AZ: “Truth be told we need to move on both ends. The boys a bit younger and the girls a bit older.”
AZ: “Suggestion Number 1. Many many girls will be coming home from seminary this month. How about NOT rushing to redd them shidduchim to all the 22-23 year old guys?”
He at some point stopped advocating this.
