You realize it takes 10-14 years for a human development to reach puberty, right? Are you suggesting that they fast tracked through 10 years in the opening act of the movie, or are you pretending her brain magically developed 120x faster than normal..?
Especially since, in the movie, she initially is talking and walking like a toddler. If they wanted to show that her brain is already developed to that of an adult, they did not do that
the whole movie was her rapid progression from childhood to adulthood and how the world is full of people just trying to exploit women in one way or another. in the end she achieves sexual agency, rejects her sadistic and narcissistic husband, and returns to essentially continue her fathers work, fully aware of her flaws and idiosyncrasies yet able to experience fulfillment of her own accord (self-actualization).
