A mintypmax_expression is not a value, nor would a parameter ever store it.
It is an expression, which evaluates to a single numerical value based on
which delay is selected during elaboration. The parameter would hold the
single value that was selected, not the triplet. It is similar to writing
parameter MyDelay = min_selected ? 3 : (typ_selected ? 4 : 5);
The parameter doesn't hold that expression; it holds the result of it.
