My supersim has aging off but when she starts getting children I will turn it on to let them age naturally.
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
My story runs at a slow pace, often I play a simsweek and it represents exactly one week in the story, too. Then there may be a timeskip (to fast forward pregnancies and the infant stage) and then we go back into slow time again.
My first sims family is on normal, but my current save I'm working on/love is on long with Mcc.
I don't even remember the cheat anymore, only that it existed. Sims 2 cheats were so long compared to what we have now. Mods made everything simpler - nowadays I just adjust age with Sim Blender in Sims 2. (Although there also is an option to write commonly used cheats directly into the start.ini. Never used that method, but it exists).

Back when I started playing Sims 4 the notifications of my sim about to age up got me incredibly guilt ridden about not having a birthday party set up for her, so when I figured out I could turn off aging I just did away with birthdays. Being forever young is more is more than a fair trade for birthday parties, right?
I also have a one child per family policy, to keep control of how many family members there are, although the latest thig I've done, is the surviving grandparent can grab a girlfriend/boyfriend and if that produces an offspring in another family, so be it - but I need to keep tabs on that child!
Otherwise, I'll keep it on. But on long settings. And active household only
I'd play it turned off if there would be a cheat available to players to age sims up, like in The Sims 3. For now, if you want to use the sims.age_up cheat, you'll have to get a mod that allow every cheat. Otherwise, waiting around 40 days for old age death would be, well, long.
Well, Paranormal stuff pack does include a way to speed up the aging bar.
Though still, where to find those sprites to sell souls to? Not every house is haunted house though!
Actually, as for legacies, the time limitations given by "normal lifespan" and "aging on" is one of the most challenging parts, sims became elders so quickly!
