I see where you are coming from, but "now" really is a duration already, in a way.

<<>>; is quite legal and will return a float expressing the amount of minutes the VM has been alive. I see "now" and other times as a duration with the start of the VM as it's start.

So; we can divide "now" by a duration and get a float but a float times a duration will always be a "duration" and not a "time", so far, in practice.

Seems to me that now / minute => float; should be an error. now is an instant, not a duration. I feel the concepts should be kept separate. michael
