Interesting.
If I had to make a guess, I'd say because Timers are slightly inaccurate (slow), that Khaled leaves a window of tolerence in case the timer fires late or has to wait for a script to finish (eg, $findfile).
So, it's probably saying "Hmm, I was suppose to fire at 8:59 and it's 9:00 already... POOP, I'm late!"
