I worked for years at 14,000 ft and never got sick.
(I was in my 30’s and 40’s)This included lot of physical exertion.
Some people just don’t belong at altitude.

However most folks need to gradually work up to 14k; going up too fast tends to bring on altitude sickness which can be dangerous.

That is true, I believe. Some people do not belong at altitude. Altitude sickness is highly variable and from what I know of it, difficult to predict.
