This is not the case (i.e. you are reading this wrong :) ). The 
FETCH_GENERATION_DELAY_MS constant specifies how much time needs to pass 
before Pages already selected to be included in a fetchlist will be 
re-considered for selection again, UNLESS they have been updated with 
updatedb (after fetching).

This is to prevent selecting the same pages, if you run FetchListTool 
twice in a rapid succession - but at the same time, if you lost or 
discarded that fetchlist, not to wait indefinitely. 7 days was 
considered to be a good optimum (some large fetch jobs may run for days, 
so it could be a couple days before you have a chance to run updatedb 
with the results of fetching).
