Saying "The time..." is fine, but the suggestions given seem backwards to me:
- The time this slot was inactivated
- The time when the slot became inactive.
- The time when the slot was deactivated.

e.g. It is not like light switch. So, there is no moment when the
active slot "became inactive" or "was deactivated".

Rather, the 'inactive_since' timestamp field is simply:
- The time the slot was last active.
- The last time the slot was active.
