Could Gara's Splinter Storm duration be refreshed (and the damage preserved) by holding the ability?

I'm fine with Mass Vitrify/Shattered Lash being the combo that builds up Splinter Storm damage, but once you reach enough damage that you're killing enemies it becomes a real flow break to gameplay to stop and refresh it. It also kind of gets in the way of actively using Mass Vitrify where you want it since you have to relocate/replace it whenever you need to refresh your duration.

i think that's an intentional complication of being able to hold the Damage value forever. _{(even though it's a waste of time to bother at all)}
