I have been addicted the Times Xword for many decades, I am 88. Perhaps, blame it on my youth, but in general, I am finding them more difficult, because the associations to the clues seem more abstract.

Definitely swimming against the current here.Even though it took me 25' to solve it, I found this to be easily the most difficult Tuesday NYT puzzle in my 50+ years doing the NYT puzzles daily.
