They realize that we -- the 'existing player base' -- are on average 45+ years old (I myself am even older) and they know that we will get fewer and fewer by the means 'natural causes', even IF they would manage to bring a remake of BF4, with server browser, persistent servers, clan features, squad management, all chat, ....
That might be sad, but I'm afraid they are correct in that assessment at least.

Hell, man I'm 50ish myself but I'm telling you if they made a good Battlefield along the lines of an updated BF2/BF3/BF4 with the features you mentioned it WOULD bring in a younger player base. I got both my sons into Battlefield and my BF1942 through BF4 clan I was in and a separate BF2142 clan I ran with consistently had a bunch of young pups signing up.
If they were like my kids, they loved mixing it up with us old timers you should have heard my kids cackling every time they got one over on me, especially if the little S.O.B.'s managed to get my tags.
Bottom line fun has no age limit, build a FUN, GOOD Battlefield game with ALL the features that they KNOW we want, and the "new/young" customers will come.
