Yes, that is why I said "for consignors": as a bidder I love individual lot closings and I really love it when lots close individually and overtime bidders cannot troll the auction raising bids but are confined to bidding only on items they've bid on before the overtime starts. I've won a number of items over the years far below what I would have paid simply because the rules have left me as the only one standing when OT started.
I realize AHs have to decide what balance to strike, but I can say as a consignor I have learned to look at how the close is handled as among the factors I consider when I consign.
