Do I have to account for all bpm changes in a song?

I want to map 'waiting' by Juliana Chahayed which has a constant bpm apart from the last 30 seconds which has a piano outro that gradually gets slower, and I'm struggling to get the timing right for it. Since I don't plan on mapping anything past 1:40, do I still need to time the piano part accordingly? Is there any extra advice that anyone can give me for this song? Thank you!

i'm pretty sure no.

Beatmaps must be perfectly timed. This means BPM and offset of each uninherited timing point are exactly synchronised with the song. Beatmaps with constantly changing BPM may be impossible to perfectly time and should instead be as accurate as possible without negatively affecting gameplay. Complex timing during breaks or spinners is optional.

technically it doesn't say anything about after the map, but it would be kinda dumb if you didn't have to time spinners, but after the map you have to time it.

i also found some recently ranked maps with untimed music after the end of the map:
s/2377183
s/833319
