Wisdom and experience from senior hacker developer "Oh you are working with time and dates that is going to get "complicated""
Lets propose a new time format we could count the number of exoseconds since the beginning of the universe. Then convert that number to whatever native time format we want.
Store that as a number and use that for conversion. Age of universe 4.415×10^17 seconds, 4.415×10^26 exoseconds
