It's just a fact of life. Nobody wants to see older people. When I was young I didn't want to be reminded of mortality. Now that I'm 70, I can just look in the mirror, so I still don't want to see age in art!
Even educational uses of CG stick to the standard 20s models. If I was doing a courseware lesson SPECIFICALLY about aging, I'd use an aged model. Otherwise not.
Bunkie Knudsen, former head of General Motors, said it best. "You can sell a young man's car to an old man, but you can't sell an old man's car to a young man."
Logan's Run sucked as a movie - I certainly wouldn't want it to reflect my art.
Most of my folks run from Mid 30's to 90+.
