Rok Mihevc commented on ARROW-15250:
------------------------------------
The one benefit from shorthands I see is if you want to do an interval of
"1D1s" that's cleaner to write as unit="second", multiple=86401
(==24h*60min*60s + 1s).
I'm happy to mark this as Not A Problem and revisit later if users want it.
