I really have no problem with an experience criteria

Nor I, but it would make more work for FCC. Right now
anyone can go from any license class or no license at all
to Extra in one exam session. An experience requirement
would mean that many hams would need at least two exam
sessions and two FCC paperwork cycles to get to Extra.
More admin work = not something FCC would like.

Any idea what percent of people actually pass both
the General and the Extra in one session?

I suspect the number is relatively small.

I tried and did not but then I was fousing on the General CSSE at the
is time

indeed a fair number of people failed the Novice and tech tests when
taken together (a friend of manged to passed to tech and code test and
fail the novice written she was rather depressed)
