We know that Marlowe contracts always end mandatorily because a maximum timeout is defined. I wonder what the maximum timeout is, it seems like you can put a huge epoch/slot in which would be practically "infinite".

can be any slot number, (2) the Marlowe state machine does not impose any limits on the slot number, and (3) the Marlowe redeem code does not either.– B W BushCommented May 3, 2021 at 13:24
