subjectively, as that creates the impression that the lowest
resolution or representable unit of time is the nanosecond.
It is what it is. The reason hnsecs is used instead of nsecs is because
it gives a time range of 20,000 years instead of 2,000 years.
We do have a nanosecond resolution, and it's just rounded down to the
nearest 10.
And to prove my point about it being an obscure term, I forgot it's not
10 nanoseconds, but 100 nanoseconds. oops!
For example:
auto d = 15.nsecs;
assert(d == 10.nsecs);
This is not what I was trying to say, even though it's true (both are
Duration.zero).
I meant:
auto d = 150.nsecs;
assert(d == 100.nsecs);
