Two things to keep in the back of your mind:

Postgres allows functions to be used as defaults, such as CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, and CURRENT_DATE.
There is more than one way to cast something, cast('3 minutes' AS interval) and possibly even the old 7.x way of type(var) so interval('3 minutes'), though that should be discouraged.
