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.
