That argument combination appears to be undefined in the docs, the only cases covered are:

block truthy, timeout is None

block truthy, timeout is positive

block falsy, (timeout unspecified)

The case of block truthy, timeout <= 0 is not documented.

Saying "Block for a result, but not for any length of time" is a tad strange; I'd be inclined to make it an error, not a synonym for block == False.
