That error dates back to Changes.

--- End quote ---
I saw it around that age and can remember it (just shy of four), so sure. It's worth noting that Harry says:
--- Quote ---He took me to see Star Wars movies.

This implies he also saw The Empire Strikes Back with his father.
Grifter:
I think 1975 works as a birth year, and 2000 as SF and the beginning of the series. And it makes it easy to associate ##ASF with 20##.
That makes Harry 25.5 in SF, and 39.75 in PT. That still keeps him younger than Butters' early forties age (I think butters is getting younger as the series goes along).
Mira:

That makes a little more sense because he then would be around five.

Oh, here's another error:
--- Quote ---“No,” she said. “Because I’m also the one who changed Thomas’s diapers, after his mother escaped our father. Dressed him. Fed him his meals. Taught him to read.”

Thomas was well out of diapers when Margaret left Lord Raith:
--- Quote ---“God knows,” Thomas said. “All I know is that there was some sort of business between them. It developed into something else. Father was trying to snare her permanently, but she wound up being too strong for him to completely enthrall. She escaped him when I was about five. From what I’ve been able to learn, she met your father the next year when she was on the run.”

I actually talked to a friend with kids about that, and she said it's not abnormal to have kids still in diapers (or more likely pull-ups) at 5+. A kid with abandonment issues from his mom leaving and his dad being a psychotic monster might still be using them. But I can also see where Lara might have done it prior to Margaret's departure, and is just conflating both.
