This is such an obvious improvement that the only answer I can think
of is "Because you haven't submitted a merge request yet?" ;-)

TBH honest you're right about the edge case, mostly datetime is about
talking to humans and that's almost by definition not worth the time
of a core dev to shave nanoseconds off the operation.  But if someone
is looking for a chance to put in a patch, this looks likely to be
approved to me.
