I suspect the main reason for having a separate time_delta per timestamp
is to use the extra 32-bit field in the timestamp structs.  Since those
structs have a 64-bit + 32-bit field, it would be messy to pack them,
and leaving the spare bytes unused and adding an additional field for
the granularity would just increase the struct size.
