My intention with this was dealing with something like setting a cryostat temperature or any non-critical parameter. If it is not reached within a given timeout we give up and move on with the plan rather than sitting and wasting a whole night of beam. If your ODBvalue is "mission critical" then the wait command should not be used with a timeout. If you do use the timeout option then you will have to check in the following lines what is the state of your ODBvalue (very easy). To me this is the simplest and most useful way for our use case.
