Or you can just book conservative connection times and go through your travel life relatively relaxed, having a nice drink in the lounge...
This is how I live my travel life for the most part. There are times when I do book tight connections but when I do it I know if it doesn’t work out that is on me ( so many factors out of our control when traveling). When it does work I call it good luck and everything aligned.
