You got that right. If someone went to do that in a University study hall nowadays, they would bring out the wooden posts and have a crucifixion right there on the spot.

I think that's more micro then going big. I think it's more of a if you're going to do something, do it right.
Yeah, 6 month-long smokes on average for king size bowls. Might explain my overall lightheadedness now that I think of it...
I think it has more to do with you following old habits from your bad old days. I.E. the fact you seal the bunker and fill it with smoke. Or at least I hope so otherwise the thing that makes your skin blue is not a good thing.
Hey, what can I say? I'm a trend-setter. Bunker hot-boxing may be regarded as a contemptible act of sociopathy now (perhaps illegal in some states, but those are probably the ones that prohibit online ordering anyway, so what's one more draconian restriction, right?), but in a short time, mark my words, it will become an historical curiosity discussed in coffee klatches and pipe club meetings alike.
Then the credits will roll, revealing it was merely a Twilight Zone episode all along.
p.s. the blue skin is an evolutionary adaptation which allows me to blend in with my gigantic wall of Nightcap tins. And did I mention I was a trend-setter?
I am a moderate pipe smoker……….who am I kidding, I smoke 6-7 times a day.
I do a couple of bowls with coffee in the morning. A bowl or two before lunch, one or two in the afternoon. At cocktail time I take a couple hits of doob, some stiff drinks and chain smoke bowls until I’m totally blasted.
How much time do I have? That many. 
Once per day, sometimes every other day. Depends on my mood. Sometimes I skip a month. Sometimes every day for several months. Rarely 2 bowls per day, as for me, a bowl lasts about an hour unless it's an XL or House Pipe which is about 2 hours per bowl. A few of my pipes are 45 minutes in "size".
I mostly have bent apples and a few churchwardens and a few other variants, maybe 2 dozen in total. Just bought a Savinelli Tortuga 614. I usually set them the day prior with a light coating of honey & whiskey.

Back in the day I'd get 5-10 bowls a week in, but over the last 8/10 years just a couple of bowls a week, most weeks!
We should just smoke our pipes when we want or need. No judgement. Just do what You want. As long as You enjoy. I can do 6 or 7 bowls a day, but to be honest I enjoy 3 or 4 bowls much more
Almost always once a day depending on weather. I live in North Texas, so if it's too hot and muggy outside, that's a hard pass. I usually don't get to smoke more than once every couple of weeks in deep summer.
Daily. Hopefully you’ll find some place you can enjoy your pipe on a more regular basis.
I would have to say occasionally, myself. I share the OPs constraints on time and location. Although I own my home, I don't smoke in the house, nor do I smoke in the car. Lose too much in value! Do you know, it is now California State Law that you have to disclose if you have smoked in the house in the last three years to potential new buyers... CRAZY! Well, that's just one of many reasons to run screaming from this crazy State to a slightly less crazy State of Colorado!
Anyway, I don't like doing quick smokes... if I am going to smoke, I want to spend a good amount of time doing it slowly and enjoying it! I like to make sure I have at least 45-60 min to enjoy my smoke.
