Again, I feel like getting lost in minutiae and caveats is a bit unproductive.

There doesn't need to be an exact logic to it. Exact logic would prove un-intuitive. Any exact reasoning as to the distinctions between the golden and silver ages were applied retroactively.

So, we have to be a little slapdash here.

Seems pretty clear, in as much as comic people outside this wiki are concerned, the Iron/Dark Age was the 90s up until the non-specific early 2000s, when the Modern Age (of Geoff Johns) began. Maybe it hasn't ended, but I do feel like Johns' shift to being CCO instead of writing more than GL and an event series now and then, paired with the shakeup in terms of writing, publication schedule/formats that was the New 52 = new age. What is that new age?

Digital Age sounds nice and tidy - but also feels like it will become outdated. It's weird to name something an Age that's currently happening. Iron-Clay age is... too niche, but I do like the idea of sticking with that statue analogy.
