restrict what the user could pass as a value to timeout. It requires that you pass timeout explicitly, but that's a (relatively inconsequential) API decision.
This is exactly the point. It's an API decision, that you must communicate to the user, he/she must read it and remember it.
Letting "timeout" be positional or named, it's just less error prone. So, if I can make it this way, it's what I prefer, :)
