Article for 'perfect timing'

Hi,

I read the following sentence in the media. I don't understand why there is no 'a' before 'perfect timing'. If I replaced 'perfect timing' with 'a perfect time', the sentence would sound fine. Am I right here?

It was perfect timing to bring up the issue.

Thanks,

MG.

timing is uncountable. No 'a'. a perfect time would also work, yes.
