Side quest bug/exploit claiming keys early through stash

The intent looks like the side quest keys were supposed to be released every other day based on the in game event showing timers to claim the rewards. The problem is they are claimable in your overflow with a 7 day expiration timer.
Can we get some clarification on whether using all of the the side quest keys today would be considered exploiting a bug? We aren’t gaining anything but time but it’s also clearly a bug that is allowing us to get things earlier than intended.
I’m holding off on running the side quest until the VFX bugs are fixed anyway but if I have to keep track of how many keys I’m supposed to have when I do start it I’ll just wait until the end of the month so I don’t use any early.

For clarification:
As you can clearly discern, this was not intended. However, to make adjustments at this stage in the game would be very high-risk. As pointed out in this thread, there is no real exploit, as no one is really getting access to anything they wouldn't otherwise be able to, they're simply getting it sooner.
tldr; don't stress about accessing your keys earlier than intended.

ie, Mail Msg disappears after a while, Stash disappears after a while.
But if Milestone in a Solo Event that is still running, you can still claim.
(I verified this in a different sort, the Gwenpool Special Resort event, I let something expire from Stash, but since 30 day Gwenpool event was still going, I could still claim from those daily Panels in there). Same should be true of this Solo Event.

So it’s better to provide freedom to community to clear SQ whenever they want as per their schedule
