Let's have more tournaments with rebuys

As a player who never rebuys I like rebuys for the simple reason that there's more money for the prize pool. Texas had 72 original/30 rebuys and NY had 70/23 - not insignificant. But seems only about half the ABT tournaments allow rebuys. Maybe its time constraints (yes rebuys can add an extra day or half day) or whether there's a second chance or consolation. Also I heard an argument that its not fair in the ABT point race. Wondering what the people on this forum think...
