I don't mind manually inline it, we don't plan on changing the
values very often certainly. It really was just to avoid future
bugs if someone adds a new place that needs the delay or does
indeed change the delay. Would you mind if I used a define for
the time instead, if I am manually inlining? That keeps the same
single place to update, but without the extra function.
