The exemption in years is literally based on the player's age when they sign their first contract, so it absolutely should not be ignored. And later in the article of the CBA it states that the first year of exemption is when the player plays their first pro game. Signing as a 20 year old and playing your first pro game as a 20 year old is not the same thing as signing as a 19 year old and playing your first pro game as a 20 year old.
