10 seconds is a really long time. If it's been 4 seconds and your brake lights are still on, I'm giving you a honk. I'm not laying on my horn, just a little boop to make sure you see that it's green.
Ok, but then I'm just gonna give your car a little kick so you know you're hurting my ears.
Kidding, but yeah it can be really annoying, and also many drivers don't blip their horn like you're saying, and instead give a full honk. Anybody walking nearby gets an earache, and anybody living or shopping nearby has to deal with the noisy environment created. Probably better to just flash your highbeams or be more patient. The horn is not meant to police other drivers or signal noncritical information, you don't see people honking every time someone is texting while driving, or driving with their lights off.
