I'd prefer a DEFINE, then you can rid the requirement for a variable
altogether.

Very well.  If you define it I'll ask no more questions. ;)

I can see what it's used for, I am more concerned about the number
passed in.

I would have thought a consumer would be more likely to know how long
it would poll for, rather than how many times to poll.  Knowledge of
time-between-polls in only known locally.  Do you see where I'm going
with this?

I don't think so, to be honest.
