Very interesting, thanks. As you say, the comparison between vaccinated and unvaccinated for the under 19s will likely be fairly significantly skewed by the vaccinated cohort having a higher % of vulnerable individuals. Indeed as far as I remember it was only the vulnerable in that age range who were offered the vaccine initially. Thus I think it may be dangerous to read too much into these numbers.
For 19-34 cohort, the fact there isn't a clear signal of excess all cause mortality for vaccinated vs. unvaccinated is surely quite reassuring? Especially as the aformentioned 'vulnerable' bias is likely still present in this age range, albeit much weaker (I haven't seen good data on this though, just a hunch).
I'm not clear why the picture should be much different for > 40 age? Is your point that adverse reactions to the vaccine increase with age?
In terms of 'excess mortality trends seen in various regions', I think it is worth also pointing out there are regions / countries where this is not the case.

Interesting, thanks! The data is only up to Oct so boosters had barely started so will be interesting to see future updates.
On a separate note:
Only 6,183 people died solely of COVID-19 in England & Wales
And only 833 under 60s.
