There is an extra empty line before the header and an extra hash in the first
line of the header.

Dates are not required. Git does this for us.

You got a hardcoded path here. Variables are set after this. It probably makes
sense to move the check after the initialisation block and then check things
and/or exit.

You never need to use "/bin" or so before a command. The shell will find it.
Just use date, grep, and (further down) openssl.

And I didn't mean just breaking the lines. I meant splitting this into smaller
chunks that are easy to understand and modify if we need to. Like:

NOW="$(date "+%s")"
EXPIRES_AT="$(openssl ... | grep ...)"

# Convert into seconds from epoch
EXPIRES_AT="$(date "${EXPIRES_AT}" "+%s")"

EXPIRINGDATEINSEC=$(( EXPIRES_AT - NOW ))

I find this way easier to read and audit and it will execute in the same amount
of time.

Here this is super easy to read and understand. Way better.

There is an extra empty line at the end of the LFS file.
