Sorry for being a bit dense, but I still don't understand what you meant to say
in this sentence.

There is nothing in the semantics of date-and-time which involves limited
precision. So it's certainly not floating-point anything (except perhaps as an
implementation detail). But I understand the desire to keep the semantics of
just-a-number.

And yet - people need, and the ODF demands, the ability to write dates in ODF
documents in ISO timezoned format, to have it recognized, and to maintain it
when saving & loading. (Ok, the maintaining it is not an ODF demand as such, it
just stands to reason for an ODF editing application like LibreOffice). So what
can we do?
