Ba Humbug on My Once Bloomers

Ok, I have my helmut on ready for the onslaught but I just had to post.
Whats with the big deal on once bloomers? Mine just started later than the shrub roses and Florabundas in the front yard. Those same shrub roses are still blooming and will repeat many times while my once bloomers are done, done, done for the year. Shortest bloom season I have ever seen.
Don't get me wrong, ROSA MUNDI and Vielchenblau are stunners but really I was expecting 6 weeks of bloom. How about 4 weeks of bloom? I got not even two weeks of bloom and the same last year.
I will never be getting any more once bloomers as these were my test roses for once blooming. I can't see why waste the garden space on once bloomers.
