1)It is not nobody.
As far as I know thorsten is using 40/120 in his tournaments and other people
like Leo use 40/40 on faster hardware that is almost the same as 40/120.

The time control in WCCC was 60/120+30 but considering the faster hardware it is
even slower time control than SSDF.

2)The fact that most people use shorter time control is a good reason to have
40/120 because we have enough information about
shorter time control.
