Sims 5 Should Double Day Length to 2 sec / 1 minute

The Sims uses 1 second of real-time to pass 1 minute of game time. 24 minutes of real-time is a day, or 24 hours of game time at normal speed.

One could argue that Sims 1, 2, and 4 work well with this model due to their closed world and teleporting when traveling to new lots.

Sims 3, being open-world, meant commuting to work and traveling around the neighborhood spent a lot of precious time. If Sims 5 Project Rene is also open-world, then they should try to fix this.

I propose the day length at normal speed is doubled: 2 seconds pass for the in-game clock to go up by 1 minute. Could even be 3 or 4 seconds per 1 minute. This has a precedent. inZOI has announced they are making their days longer than that of the Sims. Many other games have a slower clock.
