Unfortunately it depends on the specific use case, whether such timestamps 
are valid or not.

In this case, every index contained messages "16 days ago up to in a year" 
which lead to Graylog querying all indices all the time (because the index 
ranges were identical).

You can have as much or as little typing for index mappings as you like:
