Safety is first, BUT, if a captain does not consider efficiency, he won't
have a paycheck for very long. The smart captain spaces himself
appropriately so as to avoid go-arounds without upsetting ATC.

It may not even be a spacing problem. Consider parallel
approaches to intersecting runways. If someone ends up with a long roll
out on the intersecting runway, the pilot will have to go around
altogether, even if he is #1 for the runway, without any traffc
previously landing in front of him. LAHSO might not be in effect. How
is this field in particular laid out?
