I have cooked pasta 100s of times and I prefer it broken. Long pasta in annoying when you twirl it on a fork since you get often too much too little.

Also nice that the cooking is standardised so you can test a single pasta and know it's a representative sample.

And if your pot size is small, it takes a lot longer than a couple of seconds to soften enough to push it in.
