I think you've understood it.

The problem is, in order to deprecate the behavior, we first must provide the new behavior.  (That's official policy, in PEP 5.)  It's untenable to say "you'll have to stop using 'times=-1' in the future, but you can't use 'times=None' yet".  And right now I'm pretty sure we shouldn't add "times=None" for 3.4.  Therefore, we can't even deprecate the old behavior yet.
