New Friends Feature - Need to Be Level 40

I have just downloaded the latest version of PoGo, which includes the new "Friends" feature.

I have clicked on my icon on the bottom left of the screen and at the top I see 2 options: "ME" and "FRIENDS".
Under "FRIENDS", I see the the following message:
"Please come back when you hit Level 40 to access the Social feature!"

I was wondering what your views are to his requirement to reach Level 40 before being allowed access this new "Social feature" ?

(I am currently Level 39 and will hit 40 sometime next month, so it won't affect me too much either way).

Start evolving!

Yeah, mainly send gifts to other 40s, looks like a postcard (fitting bc I'm outta town for the weekend). Gift I got: 10 ultra balls and 2 max revives, plus a start to a friend "streak"

That is a poorly worded message. They should be telling people something along the lines of "The friendship feature is currently being tested with level 40 players. Come back later when we lower the level limit."

It is obviously not going to remain a feature restricted to only level 40 players. That would be fairly silly. Kind of stupid on their part to imply that you will only be able to use it when you reach 40.

We level 40's are the Beta Testers.

And in our neighborhoods we pretty much know all the level 40s...plus I doubt even 0.01% level 40s are below age 17.
