The graph works for hourly repeaters in exactly the same way as it

But what will happen is that the task will be both "done" and "due" on
the same day. Which face shall org-habit use? Which symbol? The task
will be shown in the agenda, all right, whether the consistency graph is
meaningful is another matter.
As Kyle mentioned, I don't think authorial intent counts for a whole
lot
here since the code was last touched in 2009, years before hourly
repeaters were added.
I'm not so sure. Take a look at commit be2806d281 "Fixes to the
consistency graph in org-habit", by John Wiegley, in 2009-10-22.
There the following error check was then introduced:
(unless (> sr-days 0)
(error "Habit's scheduled repeat period is less than 1d"))
Considering `sr-days' was then let-bound with:
(scheduled-repeat (org-get-repeat "SCHEDULED"))
(sr-days (org-habit-duration-to-days scheduled-repeat))
And that `org-habit-duration-to-days' performs its conversion of the
repeaters to days with `floor', I'd say it is pretty deliberate. If
this was before the introduction of hourly repeaters, I'd take this to
be even more meaningful, not less.
Best,
Gustavo.
