The problem is that for a given timedelta t with t > 0 it is intuitive
to think that its string representation str(t) would follow the rule

"-" + str(t) == str(-t)

But it doesn't.

I hereby inform you that I - probably by accident received your very
confidential and privileged message! All hardware has already been
thrown into the incinerator, is that good enough for you? Or do I have
to fulfill some ISO-9001 certified privileged mail destruction
procedure? Please advise on how I shall continue my life.

Cheers,
Johannes

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

If you write mails to newsgroups with a ridiculous confidentiality
footer, you are obliged under section 14.9a of the Imbecile Act to take
a blunt object of no less than 12 kg weight and hit yourself repeatedly
in the head until the email footer disappears. Failure to comply might
lead to criminal prosecution and/or permanent constipation! Thank you.
