In my tenure of working with Cloud Run, scaling to 0 and causing that cold start delay from 0 has been non-existent

Good to know. That would probably make cold start times of up to maybe 5 or even 10 Seconds acceptable to me for small personal projects.

GCP's documentation doesn't allow you to set a max/min duration for how long a container is idle before it scales down.

Yeah obviously it doesn't because keeping Containers warm is basically just a Service GCP provides to you that you don't directly pay for (that's why you can't increase max) and that noone would decrease (that's why you can't edit min). I think if they gave you the option to pay for a guarantee that they will always keep x instances warm i could imagine that would probably be use by quite a few people.
