They’re smaller problems with smaller edit windows, but still need answers, testing an implementation even if the edit persists 60 seconds.
For someone like Kanye, I’m sure that’s enough time to get pretty good traction.

Wouldn't that handicap Twitter as a source of breaking news? I suppose you could have a "Make live" button to skip the edit window, but that's what the site effectively has currently.
Also, I think people typically want to edit in response to something pointed out in a reply. Like if someone tweets "The Earth is crowded! 7 billion people and counting..." and in a reply someone links to https://www.census.gov/popclock/world and points out there are ~7.8B people, the author might want an Edit button to keep the intent of the Tweet, but clarify the info:. For example, revising it to say: "The Earth is crowded! 7.8 billion people and counting..." An edit button that disappears once the tweet goes live wouldn't address that problem.
