Timeout on first placement

The number of Catan games I've played in that have a play timeout before taking their first turn is extraordinary.
I play 4 player, turn based rather than live games, meaning it takes several days for that timer to tick over to zero.
Is there a reason this happens more with Catan than any other game?

maybe be there are more beginners in Catan than in other games you played. But yes I had the same issue with wingspan

I've had the issue with some games that when I switch between real-time and turn based that it sometimes switches itself back to the one you changed it from automatically. If people aren't paying attention, they might accidentally join a turn based game until it's too late to cancel.
