I disagree strongly with this, and find this a bizarre point of view.  
Regardless of how the timedelta is stored internally, it's used to represent 
physical times.  I doubt there are many applications that care about the fact 
that each timedelta is an integral number of microseconds.

Multiplication or division of a time by a float or int makes perfect sense  
physically, and I think it should be a legal operation here.
