So what would the 'always longest brigade' do if the difference in taxi time is 5 minutes? Very possible at some airports, or if there is a queue. You have a slot time and it's running out. You can just make the slot from the shorter, but legally acceptable runway. Taking the longer runway you miss the slot. What would they do?
