Celebrating Birthdays
It is not accurate to say that ancient human beings did not have calendars. From what we know, human beings always were able to keep track of time with respect to lunar and solar years. Only the recorded history of formal calendars goes back to the Bronze Age. Please see: Wikipedia | History of Calendars

Islam is not a fascist ideology where things are made halal and haram on a whim. It’s not a sadist ideology either where people are discouraged to be happy. Everything in Islam has a rational explanation, originally stems from the natural human disposition (fitrah), and finds its source in the Quran and the Sunnah. Hadith narrations do not make anything halal and haram on their own. They are narrated by people and are required to be understood in the context of the sources of Islam. With that, I have shared with you above the conditions for something to be prohibited in Islam. Still, if you find another opinion better then there is no harm in adopting it.
