To add for reasons to have an 'endless' (or very extended) round, I often find that I'm often unwilling to really commit to an RP idea/scenario if I know the end of the round is coming soon. Furthermore, even when I have an idea for a medsci experiment (typically genetics/non-antag pathology) to build a small rp scenario around, I have to basically beeline to whatever research is needed for it in order to implement said scenario, because if I don't get it ASAP, then we'll have all of 10 minutes or so to actually play around with it. A longer round would alleviate this pressure greatly, meaning I would be both more willing to RP at round start, and/or we would actually have time to play around with it.
Of course, now theres the issue that often people will blow up the ship mid-round and the shuttle will get called early anyways, which would make the default round length irrelevant.
