My interest was purely based on roleplay. I hadn't even thought about age-based attacks. Characters may relate to history and the past in a different way depending on how old they are.

I am convinced that Extended Life is as cheap as it is, because other than informing the backstory of a PC and his society, it really doesnt alter game play much at all.
Yes, I would tend not to charge for it.
