It would certainly be rate-limiting if every landing plane had to roll to the very end of the runway before turning off on "the taxiway". In principle this could be reduced by having planes with shorter rollouts leave the glideslope and continue level for some predetermined distance before touching down but that's got a bunch of new hazards even without adding any interesting wind.
