I disagree: hard sciences are mostly using the milli-second, micro-second,
nano-second and pico-seconds units. Not counting astronomy that uses both
10**-(any big number here) seconds and 10**(any big number here) years
values, with no unit to avail.
As such, the narrow edge that is represented by the interval 1 year .. 1 second
is too meaningless to consider seriously. 8-) Just a bizarre catastrophe.
