I resonate with your thinking below.

I think it's reasonable to say that a reporting node should terminate an overload condition in a timely manner. But if it's about to expire anyway, then expiration might be just as timely as an explicit report. 

And of course, the definition of "timely" is somewhat a matter of policy. For example, I can imagine an deployment that had a large number of clients using fairly short validity durations, and _never_ explicitly signaling an end to an overload condition. This adds a bit of a "slow-start" to the recovery, since different clients will expire the overload condition at different times, and the load will ramp up gradually. I don't see anything wrong with that. Of course, it wouldn't work if one chose long validity durations, or if the signaling of overload to different clients happened in close synchronization.
