Again, this is a simplification for playability. Also, that emphasis is yours, not RAW. You are welcome to interpret it how you like.

I think that down that path madness lies.

Well, cumulative duration would be a bit much. But, resetting the duration was the original ask, and I think that it would be fine to reset the duration on each use. I strongly doubt it would break the game. The best way to find out is to play with the option and see which you like better.

I'm pretty sure RAW is that traits have the effects they are stated as having, not the effects you wish they had.
