I actually like the 6 hour retarget. It makes it so the it's not too long of a wait when a large hashrate leaves the network, and at the same time gives a padding for when a large hashrate comes in to the network.
It also balances nicely with the super block period. Ensures that for the 2 week period, people won't just come and go.
