discussed before.
I was writing some code today, using Durations. I've come across the hour/hours
methods before, and so I know that '2 hour' is really one hour, and that you
have to write '2 hours' to have the thing work as expected.
It's a little strict for the language to do this, but I can see the logic.
What doesn't work for me is when I write '0.5 hour' or '(1/2) hour'. Both will
return a duration of 1 hour. In my head I pronounce this 'half an hour', so
it's an entirely reasonable thing to write.
Can something be done about this?

Not really the answer your looking for, but my natural speak patterns are:
"zero point five hours"
"half anHour"
