Kant, Spinoza, Descartes, all introverts.
I guess it depends on what you mean by "old episodes". Both the extrovert and introvert experience "episodes" each day. Arguably, the introvert can replace old episodes simply by reading another great work of literature, by spending time in nature, by spending time in contemplation.
The extrovert, by definition, requires more resources, time, and effort to arrange "episodes" that coordinate other people.

I certainly hope not. You don't want to live the life of Peter Pan, never getting older, never gaining the experiences and wisdom that is gained over time, being the same person indefinitely.

Yes, if by desensitization you mean becoming increasingly aware of your own mortality and the suffering that is life. Life can be a lot of fun, but at the end of the day there is also suffering that we all must face.
