codegen templates in UnixTime and FromUnixTime

   Yep, +1 to more tests, but as you say, it's a question of effort. I think 
that if we implement the standard you're suggesting, we'd merge very little, 
and that has its own costs. We're already not able to review even most of the 
open PRs. 
   
   On the meta-issue here: I don't think anybody disagrees with "be careful" 
but it's always a judgment call: how _likely_ is this to cause a problem of 
what size? compared to the benefit of not doing it?  too eager and we'll 
introduce bugs, too conservative and we'll miss important fixes and changes. We 
can all only make our best-effort guess. You are an important voice for being 
conservative; I'm only saying it's not as simple as others being uncareful.
   
   Anyway yeah let's get this fix in of course. It's great that there are 
downstream tests making additional checks, at least, after the fact.
