Remap keyframe timing with slider

I'm trying to make an Essential Graphics preset for some editors I work with. They have requested control over how long the animation lasts. So I have a text animation where the range is animated with 2 keyframes. I want to control the timeline position of each keyframe independently using sliders. Is there an expression for this?

    Something like this, probably:

    t1Start = effect("Slider Control")("Slider");

    t1End = effect("Slider Control 2")("Slider");

    t2Start = key(1).time;

    t2End = key(2).time;

    t = linear(time,t1Start,t1End,t2Start,t2End);

    valueAtTime(t);
