I think for the most part that everyone agrees that scene time should be minimized. I'm all for advancing the prehospital care that we provide but part of that is knowing where to stop and when to get the wheels turning for more definitive care as mentioned previously. The "golden hour" is nothing more than a cookie cutter applied to kinematics of trauma. It's BS. Each patient is unique and your scene size-up combined with rapid patient assessment should be indicators of how long you can stay onscene. Now what do we do with all the texts that mention the "golden hour": burn 'em, use them to build cabins like lincoln logs?
