@mkroetzsch To me, this isn't really about readability, but conceptual clarity 
- modeling the precision as an xsd:int using our internal constants seems bad. 
We should either model them as resources with URIs, or using a *meaningful* 
number, such as the number of digits in the ISO representation, or the number 
of seconds or some such.

The current for is fine for sorting and filtering. But for someone looking at 
the JSON or RDF is's totally unclear what the number means, and it's also 
unclear how to find out. And to interpret the number correctly, e.g. for 
formatting, you need to build a big switch statement implementing the somewhat 
random spec.
