To be fair this is supposed to be a nostalgic experience, you playing your games just like in the good old days. That means sitting on the floor with your system in front of you. Not saying I wouldn't have liked longer cords, I would obviously, but I get the idea they're going with.

Nintendo is the one always emphasizing to take breaks every 15 minutes. But now they may be using the nostalgia factor to save costs on cord length which will get people too close to their television. I wouldn't let my children that close to the television and nostalgia wouldn't change my mind. Sounds hypocritical to me. 

That is a really random argument, cords are cheap, is way more possible they made it like that so the Nes is always close (because you need the reset botton to save and change game) than for saving costs.
