If the expectation is that it sits there until the system is rebooted, and the system isn't rebooted for months, the logical conclusion is that the data will remain there for months, unless manually removed. Changing this will inevitably create frustration. On my system /var/tmp is only used for some systemd stuff, while /tmp is filled with all sort of work in progress things, that I don't want to disappear before the progress reaches 100%.
