timedelta objects only store days, seconds, and microseconds,

Except that they don't actually store days. They store 24 hour
periods,
Not really. A timedelta is truly an integer number of microseconds,
and that's all.
That's what I said. Timedeltas, internally assume that 1 day is 24
hours. Or 86400000 microseconds. That's the assumption internally in
the timedelta object.
The problem with that being that in the real world that's not true.
In my real world it is. We clearly have parallel worlds.
