So you think that it's mostly a lack of general "stamina" for actually doing things, over the lessening of abilities to do things ?

I guess so, particularly the "getting started" problem - I don't even like to think about setting up a project or dev environment.

That's a strong burnout indicator/symptom (or maybe you just don't enjoy it anymore), not necessarily something age related.
In fact plenty of people seem to fill their days with more work as they get older, where their younger selves would have chosen to do as little as possible.
