Must they always use their own implementations of time., datetime. init, fromordinal, fromtimestamp ?!

Yes, exactly.

Note: Adding resolution better than 1 us to datetime is not in the scope of the PEP but there is an issue, open since a long time.

I don't think that time.time_ns() is usable for such experiment. Again, calling a function is Python takes around 50 ns.
