Does including Duration in the RM fit with the scope for the RM?

Why do we have archetypes?
Why not include every thing in the RM?
Do we want the HL7v3 Reference Model as it existed many years ago and that 
could not be inspected without a magnifying glass on a sheet of paper that was 
2 by 1 meters?

Is there one kind of duration?
24 minutes, 5 seconds?
For 2 hours past midnight?
For 2 hours after (clinical) event x
For 2 months after (clinical) event y
