Certainly "reset at the end" feels weird but it can be explained as
"for a one-shot thing we use the first time of the default date and
it gives a consistent timestamp; conceptually, things that make
multiple commits are like doing that one-shot thing multiple times
in a row."

When viewed that way, it is not _too_ bad, I would guess.
