A site gets an extended interval before clearing because it receives user interaction and the user spends X minutes on it. I'd actually be fine with sites that receive no user interaction or the user spends less than 1 minute on having immediate evacuation of storage when the user leaves.

This is a mitigation that specifically addresses tracking that runs entirely on the client. If you set a cookie from the server the time limit does not apply, which means you can store whatever information you want on the server keyed by an HTTP cookie.
