> Part of the problem is that it's quite hard to realistically create "aged data",

Certainly. One of the projects I’m working on is just that and building a comprehensive dataset is A LOT of work. For some uses you can make it work with a little bit of realistic data for the actual teste and use simpler mechanisms to generate bulk data that’s there only to work as noise the program will never actually see (but the database logic will need to contend with).
