When the tires last so long that over half can be done on the softer of the the two why would anyone pit more than once? The races become more processional. Besides Australia and Canada I can't think of another race where you had no idea who would win after just a few laps. Sure with Australia you can say a drying track and all but Canada had no rain whatsoever. So the next variable is the tires going off much faster than expected.

One characteristic about the Bridgestone option tires was it builds up grain after a certain lap, then once the "graining" shed off the tires, it will come back to life again.
We'll see what will Pirelli brings to the race.
It will be excited to see the tires degrade faster than teams expected.
