        But why? Is there some kind of reference to something I’m missing?

          In certain accents, age and H sound similar.

              I’ve heard some either Australian or British or both that pronounce H as something close to Hayche. Using a similar accent, and making it a bit hard to hear by mumbling or something, Hayche and age can sound similar.

              Hayche is of course made up, but that’s how it feels to me to write it, but I’m no linguist, and I don’t know how to write in pronunciation guides.
