But that would suggest the output is configured for an
infinitely high output frequency, but the frequency is
actually 0, the reason why get_state needs to treat a
base_unit val of 0 special at all is to avoid a division
by 0, and in math dividing by 0 gives infinite, isn't
UINT_MAX a better way to represent infinity ?
