If you want something changing after the 10 minutes you can always PM me and I can do it for you. This is a free of charge service from your friendly moderation team.

That means me because I am the only friendly one :D:D:D
Just a suggestion but why not have it so edits don't have a time limit, but posts cannot be edited once another post has been made on the thread.

What if you spot a spelling mistake within 10 minutes and want to change it but someone else has posted?

It generally works ok like it is and it is rare we are asked to edit a post for people as far as I know.

It does work, as it is.

Though ten minutes, or ten days, I'll still never spot my glaring clangers until the edit button's vamooshed.

It stops people deleting their posts when they go off on a "I am leaving and never coming back" pathetic rant only to sneak back in later or when we refuse to delete an account.

Similar things have happened in the past.
