The above argument is the same argument as

And both arguments, being based on deduction, obviate this argument:

The rest of that comment was speculative (although I happen to agree with it.)

The question is not about cookie life, but about displaying that cogently to
the user. The real question is: is this a real problem? for some users it is
because they have reported it as a problem. No one previously reported the
existence of the text as a problem; it was a change made without an outside
(user) instigation (at least, I never saw a bug report about it.)

The heat in these comments suggests it's a real issue, too.
