I don't know that rounding to AM_PM makes sense. I'm having a difficult time coming up with any rounding scenario that makes sense. I think it makes sense to say that the boundary is 12:00PM, and that times before that value cause round down, and times after that value cause round up.
But what does "round down" mean? What does "round up" mean? Maybe someone who has a use case for this functionality can provide a good suggestion.
