I repeat, the EU, France and Germany (governments) are pig headed, self righteous and pompous. If you can't see that then you're deluding yourself.

They followed the science.
At the time of submission, there was insufficient data to support the effectiveness of the AZ vaccine in over 65s. There is no reason to expect the reaction over over 65s to be significantly different based on the reactions to COVID infections but also no hard evidence to say it will work. That's good enough for an Emergency Use Authorisation but probably not for a Conditional Market Authorisation.
Probably explained better by people with brains much bigger than mine here -
