There's actually something behind this; I've noticed that when I get close to the end of a book and exit it, I'll get a pop-up to ask me if it should be marked as "finished". But not when there's still a lot of pages (of stuff) left to go. Sigh. This is the issue with the time remaining data; no, I'm not going to read the index, thankyouverymuch.
This was not among my questions to support… considering the detail tracked in the activity table, though, I expect that if somebody is showing suspicious counts, they will investigate to see if the user actually spent any time reading, or just opened the book and immediately marked it as finished. But this is entirely supposition on my part.
