Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:

@RDM: yes, that's insane for this purpose. The size of the solution doesn't 
match the size of the problem (the problem is non-existent for most people).

@Larry: That seems unnecessarily general. I take full responsibility for fixing 
the precision at ns.  And note that I *am* giving you a way out -- I'm 
establishing a clear pattern, and if someone really, desperately wants ps or 
fs, it's completely obvious how to change the API again.  But I bet you a case 
of beer that won't happen in our lifetimes (or in Benjamin's).  So the dynamic 
precision is just unnneeded complexity.
