- Line 155: The text "positive integer (≥ 0)" is self-contradictory; determine
whether zero is allowed for this setting and replace the phrase consistently in
the document: if 0 is allowed change to "non-negative integer (≥ 0)", otherwise
change to "positive integer (> 0)"; update every occurrence of that phrase (the
lines containing "Default is 100 milliseconds. Possible values are any positive
integer (≥ 0).", and the other two occurrences noted) so the wording and the
parenthetical inequality agree.

Addressing Review Comments

• Read the changed file to understand current content
• Fix contradictory "positive integer (≥ 0)" wording at line 155
• Fix contradictory "positive integer (≥ 0)" wording at line 173
• Fix contradictory "positive integer (≥ 0)" wording at line 281
• Add cross-reference to EnableBoardsDeletion near line 189

All review comments have been addressed in commit cd300c2:

1. Lines 155, 173, 281 — Changed "positive integer (≥ 0)" to "non-negative integer (≥ 0)" to resolve the self-contradictory wording (a positive integer is > 0, but these settings allow 0).
2. Line 189 — Added a cross-reference to EnableBoardsDeletion in the boards retention days description, so readers know boards deletion must also be enabled for the day-count setting to take effect.
