Well, I understand that using floating point values to 
represent time internally is a bad idea and I totally agree. 
But some convenient API to convert Duration to floating point 
and vice versa would be useful because in mechanics for example 
you often need to express time in seconds with fractional part. 
In this regard std::chrono is more expressive (the only one 
though, in general std.datetime is much more powerful than 
std::chrono).

If you need a real (double, float) parameter, just use it. 
Transport the units separately...
