There are a good number of buildings that have a 12/24-hour production schedule with no early collect - most ships from the last event (air traders voyage), genie, savory food market, etc.
To keep up the collection schedule, one must be extremely prompt in daily collecting. Missing the collection will cause the schedule to be pushed back, which is pretty annoying.
They already made the neighborly visit cooldown to be 23 hours instead of 24.
If they think that changing these buildings to 23 hours would make it too easy, at least they should change to 23 hours and 55 minutes, so for those of us who try to collect on time every day, there is a little bit of leeway.
This is especially important for the Genie (and Carting Library/Trading Station). I have alarms at 12 am and 12pm to collect. Every time I miss it by a few seconds or minutes, the schedule gets inevitably pushed later, and these minutes can add up. The only way for me to reset the schedule is to wait for a whole cycle and collect at the next time.
There's also the problem that currently, even if you collect on time every time, you still won't be able to get 100 collections for Genie. Only 99 is possible. Similarly, for the Trading Station (on a 48-hour schedule), you're only able to get 24 collections, which effectively makes it expire after 48 days. Shortening the production time by 5 minutes would allow us to have a chance at getting the last collection.
