Yes, we should just be sure to document that conversion to ticks may produce
loss of accuracy (over-estimation).

The issue is rounding off to ticks, which have coarser granularity than either
timespec or 64bit timestamps. So the issue would affect those as well whenever
they are converted to ticks.
