   But to derive that, you might need to cast the numbers/strings first to 
ints, to be able to do the calculation to timestamps? 
   
   But anyway, your arguments are convincing that this is probably not a 
typical use case. And, the user can still provide a manual schema is they 
really want to). So this is fine for me!
