I think the idea in general is interesting for future developments. A lot of physical principles are either derived from or produce very accurate measurements done with simple hardware. If timebases can go in that direction it will make a lot of interesting portable science possible. You already see this with the digitization of analysis. A couple hundred MHz digital system can be very accurate.
