Ask HN: What's up with live location timer defaults?

This is a minor nitpick that just irks me to no end, but I figured there weren't many good places to ask. Maybe someone here implemented the first iteration of this. It doesn't matter whether you're using WhatsApp, Telegram or what have you. Whenever there's a "share live-location" option, the defaults suck.

It's most often either 15 minutes, 1 hour or 8 hours.

99% of the time I need it for 2 hours and a half. If it's 8 hours, I forget about it and it wastes all of my phone battery (this often leads to dangerous situations in my country). If it's 15 minutes, people start nagging me to turn it back on.

What's with this limitation? It seems like a super easy thing to parametrize. The feature is nice but I always get this bug behind my ear. Why is it this way?
