So why CAN'T people get out by 11 am (or 1 pm) as some have argued? Other than a desire to stay longer, there seems to be no actual inability to meet the check out time. The arguments that have suggested an inability have been shown to be false - such as tent campers requiring more time.

For every person who wants a 3 pm check out, there is a person who wants an 11 am checkin. Whose preference takes precedent?
I agree 11:00 is doable and a decent compromise. You are correct in the end you simply can't please everyone.
If you need longer or want to depart at your leisure pay for the extra day.
AS others have mentioned, I don't mind paying for an extra day.
