from https://www.grammarbook.com/blog/verbs/have-been-vs-has-been-vs-had-been/

The present perfect progressive expresses an ongoing activity that started in the past and continues into the present.

apparently you got a wrong definition, in fact "has been" implies that is was happening in the past and is still happening in the present.

"had been" would be the alternative that defines an activity that happened in the past, in a specific time frame, and is not happening anymore.

sorry, don't want to sound dogmatic here. i'm also no english native speaker was just curious. but i can understand that it sounds a little like it's over.
