Review Comment:
While we say "representative time" of time window, we still need to reason
about the semantic for chained time window aggregation, based on how time
windows are "inclusive" in bigger time window.
For example, if we suppose to have a query having 5 mins time window -> 3
mins time window. Are we really sure having any output in 3 mins time window is
valid? Where the output of 5 mins time window have to be bound for next 3 mins
time window? Why we need to worry about the case which just doesn't make sense
at all?
