What
Text about your usage limits now says "5-hour limit" where it said "session limit":
- The reset command's description now reads "Reset your 5-hour limit now and keep working; once a week, still counts toward your weekly limit"
- The reset label is now "5-hour limit reset" instead of "Session limit reset"
- The name shown for this limit is now "5-hour limit" instead of "session limit"
- When this limit clears, it is labelled "5-hour" instead of "session"
- The usage survey title is now "What's contributing to your usage?" instead of "What's contributing to your limits usage?"
A message starting "You've hit your session limit" is still recognised as this limit.
Why
The limit messages now use the same name throughout, so the reset command and the messages clearly refer to the same limit.
