That's true.

But I think you're wrong when you say a lot of people claim to be able to play their best on 2+12.

2+12 is not used because everyone agrees that more time will not help their PR it's used because it is considered a "fair pace".

I'd probably get a few counts better, if I counted all my positions 3 times! 2+12 allows you to go deep into the tank a few times. Consider a matchup vs. a player of different skill level, you could take a few "breaks" during your game, to consider adjusted cube strategy, etc.

I wouldn't like to give my opponent +10 minutes match-time because I was the one suggesting we both took a break!
