I believe that if you add some zero power time at the end of a ride (for example, if your head unit somehow continues to record zeroes after the end of your ride), the "new" TSS for the "new" ride duration will continue to increase. I mentioned this to Andy Coggan 20 years ago when he first proposed TSS and he said, "make sure your head unit doesn't do that." But, as has been pointed out to me recently, the things and behaviors I find odd most people don't.
