** Because of her time as a tree. Being inside the tree already slowed her physical growth by 3–4 years. If the prophecy were counting actual age, then Thalia already turned 16 a couple of years ago. Ergo, either it's counting actual age (so she's already in the clear) or it's counting biological age (so she's in the clear once she joins the Hunters.) Joining the Hunters thus allowed her to dodge both possibilities instead of just one of them.



** Because by that logic, she already turned sixteen as a tree. She hadn't become the prophesied child, so one can conclude that either it's going by physical age or it's not supposed to be her anyway. Either way, becoming immortal closes any lingering possibility.
