There are a number of other stories which address this as well.
Sometimes without the trope you mention (L. Sprague de Kamp's The Gnarly Man[0])
And sometimes with a variation on it (Heinlein's Methuselah's Children[1]), which he follows up with some of the same characters, but not invoking the trope (Time Enough for Love[2]).
There are many others of course, those are just the ones that came off the top of my head.
