This is what I like about Bronstein overtime. Fischer doesn't necessarily allow this to be the case.


With Bronstein time, you always have at least the delay time for each single move. With Fischer time, you always have at least the bonus time for each single move. What is your point?

That the bonus time need not be enough to make a move.

Nor needs the time delay.

Then you would not understand what Bronstein time was for.
I also do not believe that increments to time allowance are necessary. There is no reason to cushion a player's time. Time to think and time to play. That is simple and beautiful.
