I agree that the current 15 minutes is too long, but currently the 15-minute-window means that as a result of the competition of autovoters trying to get in before each other, a lot of curation rewards are going back into the rewards pool.
If this change is implemented together with the 50/50 split (which I am in favour of), this will mean not only doubling curation rewards, but increasing them even more, leaving less for authors. A 5-minute window would be a better solution in my opinion.

5 minutes would have been much more reasonable. Most of my posts take at least a few minutes to read (and several hours to write, and often days to research). Pushing the upvote window to the first 60 seconds is great for bots and insiders.
