It's already true because implied precision and comparing continuous measurements for equality and all that. It's both pedantic and meaningless to say it's true on (all of) Nov 13 2026 but not true today.

I’m not sure your point is warranted given there is a year between today and November 2026. Surely we can be more precise than a year?
Today, it's 0.98 light days away. That's what can be honestly called "one". Another year of travel time is pretty small compared to its entire journey.
