I've taken draws as long as 7 or 8 seconds. I'm sure the 10 sec. cutoff is for accidental 'pressure fires', but even 4 or 5 seconds of firing without a draw unsettles me.

I sometimes like long draws too. I solve that by flicking the power button off then in the middle of the draw. I've had the old school mods fire accidentally before, so I can appreciate the the auto cutoff. Fortunately, I never started a fire but have melted a few holes in some nice luggage bage.
You can always turn the mod off when not in use. Also, IIRC, you like Picos and have many of them. If I'm correct, you can put Arctic Fox firmware from NFE Team on it and set your firing cutoff time anywhere from 1 second to 60 seconds.
When I vape at 7 - 8 watts I hit the 10 second cutoff regularly. I have got in the habit of letting the switch go for a split second and hitting it again before that happens so I don't have to wait for the mod to let me vape again. I don't worry about the batteries because at the wattages I vape the batts won't overheat no matter how long they stay on for.
Atties can get too hot for safety though, but I've never had that happen and I used to carry a Pico 75 in my pant pocket all day at work. That also takes a lot longer than 5 seconds. Mech mods don't go into my pockets. If I pack a mod for travel, or somewhere it could start a fire if it gets too hot I shut it off or take the battery out.
