When I saw FM for their Say You Will tour on opening night, I was stunned they performed so many new songs, but since I wasn’t a fan of that album, it was a little disappointing. Especially since they didn’t sing Thrown Down, my personal favorite. When I saw FM in 1990, I was disappointed they didn’t sing more songs from the album- they performed In the Back of My Mind, Love is Dangerous, and Stand on the Rock, but I thought they would have sang Save Me, Skies the Limit, When It Comes to Love, and Freedom as well. But they didn’t.

If Stevie isn’t going to record anymore, but still keep touring, I agree with you that she needs to drop the cover songs and go back to deep cuts and hits she hasn’t performed in decades, such as Talk to Me, Rooms on Fire, and I Can’t Wait. Those three songs alone would improve her setlist dramatically. And even as you pointed out, she’s older, but she’s also taking more time off between concerts than most folks, which should help her keep her energy level up.
They didn't play Save Me at your show?! Wow - and that was the most notable single from BTM. 2018 would have been a great time for FM to play the songs you mentioned from BTM, especially since Mick, John, Christine, and Stevie were all on it! I guess because the album was not a success in the US?

Stevie takes at least two whole days off in between shows these days. Her performances are autopilot.
