Not sure I understand you. Consider "now" is placed like this:

   expires   now   next_credit
   ----time increases this direction--->

* time_after_eq(now, next_credit) -> false
* time_before(now, expires) -> false

Then it's stuck again. You're merely narrowing the window, not fixing
the real problem.
