How long does a 10 min chess game last?

A 10-min game feels just like 5|5, which counts as Blitz. I know the rationale is that an average game takes ~40 moves, and so a 10-min game gives you more time per move than 5|5.

It's because the average strength of the player pool is different. Beginners tend to like longer time controls, like 10|0. After playing for a while they might switch to 3|0 but from what I've seen people never start with 3|0 because it's too fast so they don't like it.
