What is the point of dungeon time limit?

I call bs on this...

Your statement is BS. Yoshida said so himself...the time limit is there as a PRECAUTION to prevent this from happening. Of course most people go into the dungeon and just clear it and are done...doesn't change the fact that it was implemented as a precaution so people can't afk inside a dungeon and block 1 instance from being created cause they never left...

If this mechanic were removed, you would have a lot of cases where people do a portion of the dungeon then mostly leave but 1 person stays to hold the instance open. That way can begin again later in the middle. I know because I've done this in other games for days on end.

Technical issues arising from that already discussed.

There was some Dev discussion of a "minimum item level" to be implemented. People too severely undergeared shouldn't be there at all. Go do something else to gear better, then come back.
