Any reason not to use a blow off tube throughout fermentation? I changed to no-chill brewing and use kegs for primary. Unfortunately my kegs with airlocks don't fit in my fermentation chamber I built for carboys, but they do with blow off tubes.
Blow off tube whole fermentation?

A blow off tube is technically an airlock, so there is no problem at all with using one for the entire fermentation.

Logically I didn't see any problem with it. I just see threads about using a blow off tube for the first few days or so then switching to airlock. Never saw the point in the switch really.

Mainly aesthetics and to tidy up the brew space so that you aren't tripping over hoses.
