etops 180mins 1200nm exceeded

A question for those of you operating long range etops flights,
are you happy to exceed the certified 180mins diversion etops rule time provided that the distance is under 1200nm from a suitable airport?

The reason for exceeding rule time is normally due to the wind component increasing the flight time over the given distance..
