Limitations and assumptions

  • Calendar dates are not elapsed-time instants by themselves. Time zones, daylight-saving transitions, locale-specific week rules, inclusive endpoints, holidays, historical calendar reforms, and proleptic-calendar assumptions can change an apparently simple result.
  • Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Alternative or Complementary approaches

Store instants with an explicit time zone when time of day matters, and document whether interval endpoints are inclusive. Supply a jurisdiction-specific holiday calendar for business-day decisions.
