Back in the day in FFXI Kirin used to take several hours to beat and that fight was never really hard. It was just a long drawn out process that resulted in a lot of wasted time.

I understand 30-45 minute fights aren't too bad but if you had to run a dungeon that took 30-45 minutes then get to a boss that took that long would be a tad overkill. Now maybe if they added an HNM of sorts or giant cave with a couple trash mobs up front and then the boss of even a BCNM type fight I would personally go for something like that over a FFXI style time sink grind fight.

Yes, agreed.

A fight that long would need little or no trash mobs in the way.
