Why is Destiny 2 rated PEGI 16 and not PEGI 12?

Destiny 2 is a free-to-play game. It has in-game purchase options. Yet, Playstation BLOCKS access to the store when a child account is < 16 years. From the PEGI site: PEGI 12 Video games that [b]show violence of a slightly more graphic nature towards fantasy characters or non-realistic violence towards human-like characters would fall in this age category[/b]. -blam!- innuendo or -blam!- posturing can be present, while any bad language in this category must be mild. PEGI 16 This rating is applied once the depiction of violence (or -blam!- activity) [b]reaches a stage that looks the same as would be expected in real life. [/b] The use of [b]bad language[/b] in games with a PEGI 16 rating can be [b]more extreme, while the use of tobacco, alcohol or illegal drugs[/b] can also be present. So, unless Zavala has Tourette syndrome and Amanda starts doing drugs... please change PEGI rating to 12, or explain why it is currently 16 (compare it to COD or GTA for instance).
