It's simply about "human format": humans do not speak about 36.8 minutes. But as you also pointed out: if I'd cut the seconds, nothing would change in such an important way: 36.8 or 36 is the same thing because I'm not interested into "seconds"... The main goal I'm seeking is to get *real* values of time and transferred amount of data (which I adressed in my other thread).
