The old 1500-3000+(?)∆ year lifespan really made them feel different in play when the elf player could ask the gm what they remember about living in the old kingdom or whatever.  If I wanted to widen the difference between races in play I would steal a change to potions used in a web novel I follow where different races have totally different option formats like traditional potions for humans full on bottles of beer from dwarves  steaming cups of teas for elves cheeses for rat people fancy pastries for the (actual) fey etc but they are different or nothing special for other races§.  I think it would probably allow some interesting division and make room for more treasure but haven't tried it in play because 5e doesn't really do that treasure well.∆ honestly don't remember at this point § it was a minor thing hing that only came up once or twice rather than a significant & deeply fleshed out thing.</blockquote>
