Speaking as a peaceful type player generally, personally for me the late game is about sitting back and admiring my glorious empire without getting entangled in wars if possible.
I like having tons of gold and science and building what I want and seeing huge multipliers and numbers. That is the joy for me. To that end, war is something I want to avoid.
I got a big kick out of this. I also think you are far from alone!
