Comment:

 No revert please. `get_site_transient()` is doing the same. If we want to
 handle broken transients we could set `$value` to `false` if `$timeout` is
 `false`.

 > I can't tell for sure what's the cause of those timeouts getting
 deleted,
 That's the real issue and should be investigated.
