I am going to repeat it here from what I said verbally and
in the chat - don't restrict the timeout. We never restrict
any timeouts. TIMEOUT_INFINITY is not literally double inf
value. It is just some huge but valid double value. User in
his code can have a bigger definition of what is infinity.

The same with the min. Why do you limit it from below? I don't
see a single reason for doing so. Only reasons against that -
it is inconsistent with the other timeouts we have, and might
conflict with how each particular user understand the "minimal"
timeout.

Instead, I asked you to check what if I pass Lua's math.huge
value. AFAIK, it is not some finite double value, and it might
break something.
