Wouldn't that be more confusing? The password for role "foo" will expire at 2026-02-05 16:56" No matter which date format is used, this is harder to understand than The password for role "foo" will expire in 1 day(s) or The password for role "foo" will expire in 22 hour(s) 16 minute(s) All 3 are about a password expiring around the same time plus minus a few hours, but the first one is significantly harder to figure out, first I have to think about what's the exact date today.
