I'll agree with you here; I've got plenty of anecdata of the "younger" people choosing synchronous methods (calls, meetings, one-on-ones, etc.) vs "older" people (perhaps with families or other time-taking things) prefer asynchronicity.
I don't think it's necessarily an age thing, more of a work methodology thing. Same as how some people cannot work remotely at all and will be miserable and unproductive doing so, where others thrive on remote and can't see themselves at the office. We should control for all of that in companies, and try to match people of the same persuasion. It may lead to far less attrition.
