When you complete a workout, should the “active” calories count towards your move ring or your “total” calories?

When I complete a workout on my Apple Watch, only the “active” calories I burn are counted towards my move ring, not my “total” calories. Wouldn’t it make sense for the “total” to be what is recorded?

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 7

Active calories are what you burn during exercise only and they count towards your move ring goal.
