There's a big difference between "10 / 1 / 3 years" and "13 months / 18
months / 17 weeks / 3 years / 7 months / 280 days / 42 weeks / 1 year /
160 days / 12 days / 20 months / 13 months (3 months earlier than the
other 13 months, though) / 6 months".

I think 6 months granularity should be enough; and it doesn't have to
be specifically tied to a given release cycle... it still could be 6,
12, 18, 24, 30.
