It does seem reasonable to consider modeling encryption and decryption

I very much doubt that encryption and decryption take the same length of
time but I'm sure people with experience with this will be able to tell
us definitively. Almost certainly you will have asymmetric delays in the
network path anyway even if the path is identical in both directions.

For most symmetric algs, and many modes of use, the times are the same.
The timing tend to differ for asymmetric algs.
