I know my answer is yes, because I've done manual dwindling stack late registration before (registering earlier in the day knowing I'll be home 10-30 min late and blinded off for that time). They open registration early enough to do this pretty easily.

And I've had something delay me, and missed the start by 1 minute, yes that's frustrating. It's not a problem for me personally, if I miss a tourney I had planned to play I just go to cash games. But for a tourney player it's frustrating. The problem is, late reg doesn't fix that issue, just delays it. The issue will always exist. If they make a 30 min late reg period for example, there WILL be people who get logged in at the 31 minute mark and miss it. So to be frank late reg is not a fix for that problem, there is no fix for it. Be timely, or reg early. Or accept you may miss the occasional tourney when cutting it close.
