I don't get the reduction of APP as you get older. Why is my age affecting my ability to be charming? Especially for people the same age. I'm 47 and certainly don't think other late 40 year olds look uglier than they did ten years ago. I certainly dress much snapper than I did in my twenties. Plus I think some folk get more beautiful or handsome with age.
I kinda get it if I'm dealing with young folk, but really is the old lady in the shop going to judge me when I'm still twenty years younger than her?
(I don't use this in my games, so i'm just interested in why its a thing in the first place. I get the reduction of Str, con and or Dex.)
