While these function may seem superficially plausible, I more and more come to the conclusion that offering such function as ''basic building blocks'' is in itself an ill-guided approach to handling of time entities. Time is neither „just a number“ — nor does it „contain“ hours, minutes and seconds. It is possible to ''represent'' it through a **time-code**, which incurs a quantisation step and implies a reference grid. Thus Lumiera ''should not offer'' a »basic time handling library«. Doing so would be just an invitation to bypass proper time handling and avoid the use of more demanding but also more adequate mental concepts. So the next step will be to remove functions not deemed adequate, and better directly inline the respective modulus based computations. Other functions can be integrated into the respective implementation translation units for time quantisation and timecode representation.
