The one's I've flown take maybe 20-30 seconds. So, you just lead them a
little more while the landing airplane is rolling out.


Lead them a little more? You mean delay the takeoff clearance a little
more, don't you?



I don't think this is any less safe then P&H.


The problem with P&H is not in holding aircraft on a runway, it's in
clearing other aircraft to land while aircraft are holding in position on
the runway. The solution is simple; stop clearing aircraft to land when
aircraft are holding in position.
