If you like to spend 30 minutes preflighting, reviewing the logs etc,
please consider booking the plane at 4pm and the instructor at 4:30.
That way the instructor can continue with ground instruction or flight
instruction in another airplane while you take your time to prefilght.

If the plane just got back, I figure it's airworthy enough for me and I
would just give it a quick preflight (fuel, oil, and a quick shake to see
if anything falls off).

I feel the same way but I don't discourage students who want to spend
30 minutes preflighting. If that is what they need to feel safe in the
airplane I don't rush them, I'd just like to not be in limbo during it
such that I can't develop any billable hours.
