   > Ah, letting the user choose could actually also be interesting: it leaves 
the custom logic to determine what the "greater unit" is to the R lubridate 
bindings, and it actually gives some flexibility to the user of the actual 
kernel (for example, you could want to round to a multiple of weeks since the 
start of the month or since the start of the year) Would that be a lot of code 
change to do?
   
   I'm honestly not sure about the change required. Right now we have 11 pairs 
of units and we'd go to 55 (?), plus we'd have more physical-to-calendar units 
interaction plus this then needs to be tested for zoned and nonzoned cases. I'd 
prefer to push that into a separate PR and unblock the R work.
