Also why are there some restrictions on the factor argument of divideBy and multiplyBy to only accept positive integers ? At least that is what I understood when I quickly checked the proof of concept. Since Duration are signed instances that restriction seems strange ?Enforcing positive values for multiplication and division means that flipping the sign of a Duration is a deliberate action and not just something that happens as part of another operation.
