There are good scientific use cases for nanosecond time resolution (e.g. radio astronomy) where one is actually measuring time down to that level and taking into account propagation delays.

It's probably neutral. But I do have one question: can you foresee the scientific community moving to a finer resolution than nanoseconds in our lifetimes?
