Hi Reed,
  I think one of the main reasons to use a enum for the minutes is that we 
only accept a limited subset of values.  It's intuitive from the field name 
what range of values we expect for the hour, but not for minutes.  By using 
the enum, we make it clear to the developer that we only accept a subset. 
 If we accepted a numerical value, the only indication of the limited 
values would be in documentation, which is less explicit than an enum.
