Lukas might have different opinions and I would defer to him here.

But IMO (a) these aren't timeouts, they are poll intervals, (b) the
values are arbitrary with no connection to a spec, so less reason for
a #define, and (c) the #defines don't improve readability because now
I have to look at two places to understand the poll loops.
