While I generally agree I can also easily imagine inclusion delay caused
by that change. I need to give some more though to this.

While it's okay for triggered mode that isn't so ideal for polled mode
because of extra time needed by sensor to actually spin up.
You start measuring and expect new data to arrive within 2 seconds
(given 0.5Hz sampling frequency is set) but they can actually show
up within 8 secs. Not very reliable so to say.
Thus I think sticking to continuous sampling is preferred here.
