I'm 73, and still pretty active. Yearly physical and require no meds. Been riding since the early 1970's. So I know where you're headed in your riding abilities, I think.
I'd keep the EC. That heavier FW and more mellow power delivery will come in handy as you age.
My current off roader is a '01 GG XC 200 (W/ a 12 oz FWW) and a '17 FE 250 Husky 4st dual sport . I rode open class bikes since forever, but around 70, decided smaller and more mellow is better. It was a good decision for me.
