Its problematic sure but its not illegal and honestly I dont think it should be. Even if I you increased the age of consent to lets say 21 the age gap would be still problematic. But some things can be problematic but should still be allowed like a boss dating his secretary for example.
I mean there’s a 6 year age gap between my partner and i but we’re both in or very near our 30s. I wouldn’t have considered them a viable partner when she was 18 and I was 24 tbh.
Even in an anarchist society you will have "powerdynamics" like a partner that is more conventionally beautiful, has a more prestigous job like say surgeon or is simply very popular with a lot of people. Sure I agree that we should strife to reduce the imbalances and even the playing field but under the current oder only so much is possible. Which is why I wouldnt mind an increase in the Age of Consent since it would be a pragmatic thing that could actually happen (at least on paper).
And yes I think a Boss / secretary realtionship is problematic but it should be allowed under the current system. (Assuming consenting adults). Of course we should try to eliminate the need for bosses but that is not something that is going to happen anytime soon.

um what
problematic things should be solved, thats what the world problem means. Action should be taken to actively reduce these things.
