Literally the only thing I ever actually used gpg for was file encryption. I tried dong key management and signatures for a very brief period 20 years ago and gave up because no one else was doing it and it was annoying trying to do the right opsec things with no payoff.
Ever since then, as far as I can tell there has been a very small very niche group who use gpg for anything other than file encryption. So age is the obvious choice for the vast majority of us and it's adoption seems to be reflecting that.
