The reason for the age requirement in Special Forces is due, in large part, to the many different types of missions SF dudes are assigned. Many of SF's missions require specific skills, abilities, and a maturity level that, generally speaking, a guy doesn't have when he is 20 years old.
Conversely, Rangers and SEALS perform missions that usually are considered direct-action(shoot-em-up) missions. While both of these units are very well-trained, their mission requirements don't necessitate the same maturity level. It doesn't make any unit "better" than any other, just different.
Hope this helps clear the fog
