Yeah, I consolidated the times in v2 and will keep it in v3

Yeah, I combined then here to make the function working with the
delays consider both delays. I'll make this simpler.

Yes, I think v2 (and shortly v3) makes this better

I can just remove it, I just added it for clarity as opposed to having
it just be 0.
