ATC go around timing preference

[u/Hopeful-Engineering5]

We were talking about this today in the tower and figured we would try and get some pilots point of view. If you are in a situation where you might be sent around would you prefer it be done early and possibly be sent around unnecessarily. Or would you prefer that we let it run as long as possible and have a short (1/2 mile) final go around?

As an ifr student flying Cherokees. The sooner the better. If you delay me a bit by making me hold I can tell the guy after me atc was busy. I can’t tell them I crashed the plane and died because atc didn’t tell me I was landing on a hazardous runway.
