That's fine if you hand process your stuff in a tray or drum processor, but when you are working with a large roller fed processing machine, it is neither economical or realistic to adjust development times. Although when I worked in the lab, we had the opportunities to hand process stuff if it was necessary, the customer paid dearly for this approach, because of the time and effort involved. I think I'd just shoot B/W film instead.
