Not at all!  Imagine if just the value of some important constant had
been changed?  That will not change the size of the object, but will
change the timestamp.   

A watertight approach would also include an md5sum match.  rsync in
effect checks all three to detect differences, therefore so should
we.  

Military precision is the only safe approach.
