Ha! Maybe, maybe for something happening in the past day or so it’s ok, esp. due to timezone conversion confusion.

But for anything older than that, just show me the date!

Personally it is more about avoiding big relative errors: 1 month ago can be between 10 and 45 days ago (maybe, nobody knows how the rounding works). 8 months ago is less of problem
I think you'll find it was 1 hour and 5 minutes ago.
