Mismatched units get either implicitly casted, or else you get NotImplemented if you have say `timestamp[s]` and `timestamp[ms, tz=America/Phoenix]` since no kernel is registsered for this combo. There are some tests for this. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
