The hands of older people are also just literally less compatible with a capacitive touchscreen, because skin retains less moisture as we age. If you've ever seen an older person licking their finger before turning the page of a book, that's why.

Also, fine motor coordination often declines with age. Can make it hard to do a swipe or hit a key reliably in the first try.
