You're still misrepresenting it. The artifact is literally making him DT. It's not "oh crap this is killing me I'd better DT" and still failing to tank it-- it is in fact that the artifact is giving him the power to DT infinitely, at the price of draining his life. The fact that the only time he does that is when in possession of an artifact known to give extra power at cost should be a hint that he can't just do it infinitely at his whim, not evidence that he can.

honestly i think you're misrepresenting him as well here.
generally i think the best idea for where he's at with DT is that it's just another power up transformation. sure there's a technical time limit on those but it's not really something that's going to be relevant over the course of this fight. like yeah, Goku can turn SSB for a prolonged period of time but if this were in an action game or something it'd be a lot more temporary. basically it's typical shounen powerup where no, you don't expect them to be able to sleep in that form or something (at first) but that's what their true power really is. and like typical shounen powerups go, through a mix of time, experience, and usage of power, the ability to stay in that state will grow drastically, as will the power gained from it and the fighter's comfort zone with it.
