Ah, I was confused by this bit in the doc string:

----
The optional FORM specifies the form of the SEC member.  If ‘integer’,
SEC is an integer; if t, SEC uses the same resolution as TIME.  An
omitted or nil FORM is currently treated like ‘integer’, but this may
change in future Emacs versions.
----

I think "if t, SEC uses the same resolution as TIME" could possibly be
expanded upon.
