[Outdated] "--retry-delay" not accepting decimal (e.g. 0.001)

[MasterInQuestion]

    "expected a proper numerical parameter"
    Unlike some other options that expected "<seconds>".
    ("--connect-timeout", "--max-time", etc.)

    Also on the documentation:
https://curl.se/docs/manpage.html#--retry-delay
    "Setting this delay to zero makes curl use the default backoff time."
    .
    Potentially ambiguous as the default backoff time may vary. (exponential backoff)
    Better to clearly indicate.

Better to clearly indicate.

Sorry I don't understand. Indicate what?

[MasterInQuestion]

    Change proposed:
    "Setting this delay to zero makes curl use the default backoff time (exponential backoff)."
    .
    So avoid the potential ambiguity misinterpreting which as fixed 1 s.
