Ratelimit expires very quickly. In case of multiple failed
authentication attempts with different username+password pairs

Multiple attempts with the same wrong password are ignored.

If you really want to expire then you can write $tod_epoch
in each record and from cron run a script deleting too old lines.
Or use a directory with multiple empty files like in
