The timeout inside waitForEvent is basically a stopwatch, not a kill switch.
When your workflow hits waitForEvent, it pauses and listens for the event.
If the timeout expires before the event arrives, the workflow simply continues past that point (usually via the timeout branch or default continuation).
The workflow does NOT stop, crash, or end unless you coded it to end at that point.
Events that arrive before waitForEvent starts do not count and are not buffered, unless the workflow engine explicitly supports event history or replay queues
