+When you want to disable x-expires from a delayed queue, then this is possible by adding extra option on queue `expire_delay_queue`.
+- When the `expire_delay_queue` option is omitted, it is considered to be true.
+- Useful for when you're using quorum queues, as they risk to delete the queue before the messages are moved to their destination queue.
