I agree with Paul and Kim on this point.

Another reason for not using the total aggregated time as a variable is
that we would not know how to assign an SLE to it, since the possibility of
multiple repeated technical checks implies that the total time could be
arbitrarily large.

There is a mention in Paul's message of the possibility of setting a
maximum for "in between time". I believe there should be no "in between
time". Either the ball is with the customer or with IANA, but never in
limbo. Whenever it is with IANA, it should be accounted for somewhere.
