Maybe it's just a problem in my timezone, and there ARE workarounds (use the ST ping, wait 5 mins, then ST) (coST with someone else), but given that there is a queue anyway, I really think the cooldown could drop to 20 hours. If someone is able to take full advantage of that, then... there's not much demand for STs at the hours they are playing anyway. And if there is a lot of demand during your timeslot, then the queue should balance that out anyway.

However... if they never ST, they can join the queue sooner, and make sure that slot in where they will be able to run the game

If you drop it any lower than what it is currently you'll probably get the issue we were having around this time last year, where the queue was 6 deep and it was a shit fight to get on the queue. People will ST every day if given the chance to
