Default Postal timestamps?

Is there any reason the precise minute information has been removed from post timestamps?

I also would prefer to have a time stamp instead of the time elapsed since the posting. In other words revert to the previous setting.

I like the date time stamps, and also the elapsed approximation as is.

Would it be possible to do something like :

28 Nov 2015 hh:mm:ss (23 hours)

as a compromise?

Please stop. This is unnecessary. It only adds work.

I agree. While it is better than the previous monstrosity, it is still ugly as f**k. How about a true compromise: To each his own. Have a control panel option to select the format of timestamp to be displayed? Give me an option to continue with the original full date-time format, please!
