How strictly should breaks be enforced?

In Response To: How strictly should breaks be enforced? (Tom Keith)

I think this entire thread is overblown. "Abuse of the current break rules is the biggest reason that tournaments fall behind schedule" is particularly not true in the least in my opinion. Is anyone really have a problem with breaks that last too long or someone taking a ton of breaks? I've never had this problem in the US. At a tournament like Monte Carlo I have but never in the US has someone taken too many breaks or taken them for too long.

Asking the TD/staff to oversee breaks is ridiculous again unless there's some hidden break issue that I've not been privy to. This is a tedious unneeded task for them to have to deal with. You can write the rules more clearly if you like but as far as anything to do with tournaments is concerned, this is way down on my list.
