Very nice, always a pleasure to see hag essays and deep hag thought from my esteemed hag enjoying colleagues. I agree with the general sentiment even if my personal tastes skew more towards classic hags
We could probably also clarify that faux-hags now refer to early-mid-late 20s who look mature for their age especially compared to their peers and the industry/casting/agencies have already begun putting them in mature roles where they thrive and excel
Anyway, I feel like Mina Kitano really will look stunning for many years to come (assuming she stays around) just as you assert
Nao Jinguji is an unusual case, she started off with a very youthful albeit not necessarily loli look but now she's evolved into a faux-hag in her Madonna releases (whereas Moodyz prefer to highlight her youth I guess). Who are some others that you think are faux-hags?
Quasi-hags bring us to actresses like Kana Morisawa, similar in principle to faux-hags but a notch riper
Pseudo-hags differ slightly in that they're not a linear continuation in ripeness like the preceding categories, but rather actresses who already have more than a foot firmly in the realm of hagdom but manage to clutch onto their youthful presentation whether it's through make-up, demeanour, or simply industry consensus like Julia
Semi-hags are just those who are already pretty much there or at least half way in terms of ripeness; the journey to hagdom is noticeably and undeniably underway, and the destination is close on the horizon
The remaining categories are fairly obvious and more self-explanatory, I think

Madonna started with JUK- (from "jukujo" - 熟女 - "mature woman") with their codes back in the vhs cassette days, with JUKD- being used for the some of the same titles as DVD releases. The D designation quickly became superfluous once vhs went obsolete and digital formats were the new standard.
Since then, all their mainline codes have started with JU...-, maybe as part of tradition? To make cataloguing easier?

For reference, past code prefixes are:
>JUK (VHS format)
>JUKD (Dec '03 – Dec '08) (DVD format)
>JUC (Jan '09 – Dec '12)
>JUX (Jan '13 – Oct '16)
>JUY (Oct '16 – Oct '19)
>JUL (Oct '19 – Jun '22)
>JUQ (Jun '22 – Present)
>JUS (VHS format) and JUSD (DVD format) are compilations
>JUVR are VR releases

It's also why Fitch (formerly a Madonna subsidiary label) similarly has codes beginning with JU...-, even to this day. I think their VR codes are an exception, though.
>JUFD (Nov '07 – Dec '18)
>JUNY (Dec '18 – Present) (Nikuyoku sub-label)
>JUFE (Jan '19 – Present)
>JFB are their compilation releases

I love all hags equally
There's still no consensus on what a faux hag even means though
