I wouldn't, but only because that doesn't give up the processor
def sleep(delay):
system.scheduler() #Whatever one wants to call it...
return
OTOH -- does at least relinquish the processor... Of course, it does not
meet the (implied) documentation of not returning until at least <delay>
time has passed. That then becomes a documentation flaw.
"""
sleep(delay)
Invokes the OS process scheduler to immediately transfer control to the
next ready task on the system.
The parameter <delay> is a place holder and has no effect; the function
returns immediately upon the process being made active by the OS scheduler.
