in low-blind situations, the best players have a smaller advantage than in the endgame

Imagine that you are in an SnG with 9 other players, and you are the worst player. Would you rather that the blinds:

A. Stay at 10/15 throughout the whole match
B. Double every 5 minutes

If you are the worst player, you would want [B]. They shorten the game considerably, giving you a chance to catch a couple of lucky hands and walking away a winner. With [A], the best players will avoid losing their stack no matter what cards they are dealt and will eventually beat you.
