I didn't read all of that, but I think it is worth noting that while Trump did "create more time for himself", that also showed a lot about his character. He didn't do this in a clever or smart way, and he came across as rude and a bit off the rails. One of the reasons the moderator may have allowed him a little more leeway was because his interruptions and arguments with the moderator were insightful more to his "temperament" than his point of view. So yes, Trump stole some extra time from the moderator, but I think doing so hurt him more than it helped him.
