There’s an edged case in which we wouldn’t count some sessions. If you leave the website open in a tab overnight, and click on an internal link the next day (or after the session expires, 30 minutes), the new hit will have origin = same page, and then not being taken into account.
This happens since analytics_sources_mv only collects data where the source isn’t the current domain.
Expected Behavior
Count all sessions, including internal navigation, after the session expires. So the top_devices and top_browsers metrics are accurate.
To Reproduce
Leave a tab open for more than 30 minutes, and then click an internal link. A new session id will be generated, but the session won't be taken into account in top_devices and top_browsers endpoints since the origin is the same domain.
