One reason is there’s literally many times fewer roles for someone with 20+ years of experience.

And as time marches on, there’s more and more competition for those roles.

i thought standard advice is to chop your resume to last 10 yrs

I guess it depends on how many jobs you’ve had in the last 10 years. I’d only have 2 roles if I did that :)

I wonder how that could be possible? There are proportionally so few of us old-timers around to begin with, given how much smaller the industry was and how rapidly it has grown over the last 20-30 years.
