I got distracted following the references to RFCs and noticed a nice number:

  2*7*24*60 = 047300 # two weeks, in minutes

This is not a coincidence. Ignoring the trailing zeros, we have:

  5*7*011 = 5*077 = 5*0100 - 5 = 0473

I don’t understand.

Maybe RFC 9759, which is referenced in the article "HTTP offload is a dumb great idea whose time has come"?

https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc9759.html

OP apparently noticed that two weeks is almost 20480 decimal = 050000 octal minutes, just 320 = 0500 minutes in fact.

I'm also out of the loop but after some research, 0473 seems to be a TikTokism meaning "hug me, please." I would assume that this code uses octal notation, hence GP doing their math in octal, but the sources I've turned up describe codes with digits illegal in octal, so I don't really know.
