Why can't derivative market run 24 hours a day?

Why can’t derivative market run 24 hours a day ? At least cash is trading about only 6 hrs, why can’t F&O trade the whole day ? We will have our own nifty fut to look at instead of SGX. And I think even US derivatives is open for the whole day. Why can’t we have such a thing in India ?

As for this

detrimental to a traders mental health in the long run. If it isn’t good for the trader, it isn’t good for the brokerage firm in the long run as well. Trading is stressful and not having markets open all the time gives traders important break from the markets.

Take today’s FinNifty expiry for example. 6 hours was stressful enough, why would one want to trade longer or 24/7 (unless one’s looking for their fix)
