There are two approaches that can be used if an API specifies time more
finely than the system supports.

First, you can specify in the API that this is only a hint. This is
accurate but it makes it more difficult to reason about and debug the
actual behavior.

Second, you can have the method return the actual value that will be used,
which might be different than the value requested.
