I tested that locally before reporting the mistake on my side and
while it works, I just consider it.. ugly, because:

num_clocks =
>0 => use the externally specified num_/clocks (logical)
=0 => use the default 2
<0 => consider there's zero

..but maybe that's just me.. if you don't find it ugly, I may just
go with that.
