Does limiting the duration obviate the need for the additions, then? If the duration is brief, why provide a cancel option?

If I am a client and communicating with / using IPP Printers hosted on an IPP print server, I would want the Identify-Printer to map to the IPP Printer, which may or may not be implemented as a sub-system of the physical hardware of the print server (as represented by the System Control Service).
