Yes, apart from it only affecting reads, the calculated timeout is only that high if the register still holds the reset value.
I've only seen and would expect this for initialization 'read' commands, like ACMD13, or ACMD51.
I have chosen 1s to hit an expectation that I would consider normal, that a card is initialized in a couple of seconds after plugging in, or never.
