What are the 10 times and 50 ms delay based on?

I'm pretty nitpicky about this. Please avoid <= in the for loop if you
can. Just make it the obvious (i = 0; i < 10; i++), or if you have 1 try
+ 10 retries, then i < 10 + 1 or i < 11.

If the 10 retries is just made up, then maybe just try 10 times total.

This changes behaviour for the first try too. Is that intentional? No
mention in the commit message?

The else is redundant here.
