expires vs expiration

It appears I have misunderstood the difference between `expires =>
time() + 3600` and `expiration => 3600` as I thought `expires` would
just set the expiration one time and not update for subsequent
requests. Per this discussion thread, that does not appear to be
correct:

Thus I felt it best to just set the expiry period to 30 min and allow
that to reset on subsequent requests rather than reinvent the wheel
