I’m working on a project where we would like to force all existing users to change/reset their password every 90 days. It looks like that is possible with this plugin, but your plugin description says that the Password Aging feature is not recommended. Why is that?

My take- it inconveniences users more than attackers, and encourages shorter, simpler, and reused passwords.
Put a link to https://makemeapassword.org/#getpassword where they need to make a pw, and get them all to use KeePass. (Obviously secure the KP db with a strong PW.)
