Oh, this should not be a bug, but in the future we may add some
configuration options or some policy to let it work as what the user
expected. There is a small window from the original ticket owner decided
to renew to the ticket expires. Although you get the Site A started
within the expire date, but it approaches the expire very soon, so no
enough time to renew that ticket.

Currently that small window is 20% of the expire time, but it should be
able to be configured by the users. So, in the future development, I'm
planning to make it configurable and also add more policy on the renew
logic.

Thanks,
Jiaju
