Cruise power - fuel for 3 hours minimum

I believe that fuel tanks fitted as standard should hold enough fuel for a minimum of 3 hours at cruise power in Standard Conditions ( sea level + 15 deg etc)

Anything less and more time is spent refuelling and paying costly landing fees than flying.

So what do you think should be a standard and why?
