we reordered our keys such that they can expire at different times - also redis checks a keys TTL before returning - and wont return if its expired. i think it will 'eventually' delete if its not accessed, but we only cared about keys being returned, not when its actually deleted

Thanks for clarifying. I wasn't aware of the fact that redis removes expired keys even if they aren't deleted. I've always thought of expiry as more of a resource management annotation. Interesting way to use it.
