If you define reality as the ability to perceive and process separate static
images... Reality is a continuum of sensual impression, not a series
of separate quanta. So a 7 year-old can only see 30% of the movie
frames as an adult (a statistic I strongly doubt)? What about all of the
other sensory impressions he gets that are lost by adulthood? He hears
another 5000Hz above the adult range. He smells and tastes things
better and with greater perception than an adult. His nerve endings
allow him to feel pressure and texture more keenly than an adult.
You could say that a child has 100% more of the invisible world to
live in than the average adult. Just to extend the metaphor, the average
dog has limited vision, but his world is defined by his sense of smell,
which reveals an entire world around him that is unnoticed by
humans.
You have blinkered yourself into this tiny definition of perception
and it drives you to a completely unrealistic world view.

Reality is so much more that you define it. How can you state as a
physicist that we comprehend reality at all when we only see a tiny
fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum around us, can only perceive
a tiny fragment of the chemistry of our world, can only sense a tiny
fraction of the vibrations giving us information about the world, and
only perceive a tiny fraction of the range of different scales of the
universe? We aren't missing 15% of reality, or 20% - we are missing
99.99999999999999999%, and you are missing the whole point
entirely.
"Full growth" will never catch us up with the rest of the universe, because
perception of widely differing scales of sensation is impossible with
physically realizable materials. Your theory is basically flawed because
it is limited by your own homocentric imagination.
