There are those of us here that contend that his mother because she was not 21 or had reached the age of majority at the time she gave birth according to the law at the time, could not pass on her citizenship to him and that because his father could pass on his British citizenship according to their laws did so.

If he was born in the U.S. then his mother's age and his father's nationality is irrelevant. That's also what the Kim case decided.

I disagree the main focus of the Kim case was should he fall under the jurisdiction of the United States even though his parents were legally barred from becoming citizens. They were legally barred by our laws and not here on a special visa that is the difference you always ignore.
