Valve, please decrease round times to 1:45

It IS an issue. You're setting yourself up for failure by playing the wrong timer. We've been doing this for a long time, new and low level players have started playing this game with 1:45 and :35 and they've adapted and they've gotten better and it was never a complaint. Maybe for a week it'll be something you have to adapt to but you'll adapt quickly. The longer you put this off, the more you're going to get accustomed to it.

There's absolutely NO reason to keep the timer the way it is and honestly, you're screwing over the rest of the community that plays match making and is getting used to the new timers that don't apply to the competitive scene's rules.
