Isn't the working of session_expiration_time time misleading?

So, after using RASA for almost years only today I realized that session_expiration_time is counted from the start of the session but not from the last message of the session.

Assuming session_expiration_time to be 60 minutes for below example.

So let’s say I started the session at t0 and conversed with the bot for some time (maybe 10 min) and left the bot. At t0+10 I came to the bot again now and continued the conversation for 10 more minutes (t+20). Now, wouldn’t it be proper if session expires after t0+80 minutes ? Right now it is t0+60 minutes
