Consider US eastern daylight time, June 30, 2012. 1/2 hour for the first hour of the day is 1800.0 SI seconds. 1/2 hour for the 19th hour of the day is 1800.5 SI seconds.
1/2 minute for the 1st minute of the day is 30.0 seconds. 1/2 minute for the 1139th minute of the day is 30.5 seconds. This will make certain time computations quite intricate. Representing the time as a simple floating point number may lead to unexpected results.
