One interesting aspect of this is surely you could never take the vote from someone once they've got it.
But you could reverse it by not giving it to future 16 year olds from a certain date by saying "voters are those aged 18 or over on polling day and/or those born on or before date X". That means someone who was 16 on date X gets to vote but anyone a day younger than that doesn't (and they never had to vote to have it taken away from them).

Such as this, sure to get some people angry.
