Many of the contexts where these are used easily lend themselves to carrying some kind of emotional data:
Are you trying to learn the guitar any longer (mocking, dubious)
Is there going to be more (curiosity) of that?
Are you going to stay a while longer (hope)?On the other hand, such emotional markers being present would also tend to indicate that some kind of meaning along those lines is implied.
Hence, a language where indefinites and comparatives both are formed from grammaticalized adjectives or verbs denoting emotional states?
