The number of times legally should not be relevant

It's highly relevant.

"It's highly relevant."

If it is relevant, then we could say someone does not comply within five requests, it is a crime, but if they comply within four times, it is not a crime. That makes the criminality dependent on the time it takes the cop to say something, not on the action of the suspect. The speed of a cop speaking should not determine criminality.

A cop could just talk fast and arrest anyone.

People have to be able to reasonably comply.
