Comment:

 Closing this with the maybelater Resolution.

 While this issue has not been addressed in WordPress directly, it can be
 re-opened if it needs to be.

 SSL is everywhere now – even most local environments – and I don't see any
 recent reports of this.

 > increasing the timeout value in the "cron_request" filter from 0.01 to a
 higher value prevents the error from occurring

 This seems reasonable to me. From what I can tell, the default timeout of
 `0.01` (10ms) in the Cron API is what it has always been, and arbitrarily
 – not because it is better or best for any specific intent.

 Tangentially, the default timeout of the `Requests` API is `10` whole
 seconds 😅
