I feel like Hydroid is the only frame where you want as little duration and range as possible. There is very little point to having the tentacles last very long; they're awful at grabbing new targets and they kill their primary target pretty quickly. Centralizing both Tentacle Swarm and Tempest Barrage into very small areas ensures whatever you were aiming at gets hit repeatedly, rather than having tentacles and the tempest harpoons landing out of bounds or along high ceilings. Being able to re-place Tempest quickly is also great.
