I think I would rather see this supported by paved path conversions to-and-from the specialized library. It's very hard to be all things to all people because there are irreducible trade-offs. The linked issue does a tortured tour through the trade-offs. I found it very difficult to wire in leap second support in a way that was satisfying. And even if Jiff supported leap seconds, that doesn't mean it would be well suited for scientific applications. Do you need more precision than nanoseconds? Do you need a bigger range than -9999 to 9999? If so, those come at the cost of everyone else by using bigger representations. They _could_ be opt-in crate features, but now we're talking about non-trivial additional maintenance/testing burden. IDK, maybe there is a way to unify everything in a satisfying way, but they seem way too different to me.
