    It’s an estimation, which I prefer over the vagueness of a done/not done light. I recognize that it’s not specific or reliable for any precision, but having a general idea of when it will be done is useful.

        Mine typically says 2.5 hours and is done in 1.5-2h. Anyone using estimates on a minute schedule is… gonna have a bad time
