I am older, have family and mortgage, time and financial pressures. But I still get excited about new developments in my trade as a primarily front-end dev, including package managers and frameworks. And the experience, capabilities and track record of success that I bring to the table act as a differentiator between me and my younger colleagues. Not to discount your point, just to say there's more than one way to look at it. For some, they reach a point in their lives / careers where constant change is wearisome. Others continue to adapt and thrive. I have no idea what underlying factors would cause this.
