TimeSpan works well with existing <chrono> based code, because it's a simple std::chrono::duration with no association to a clock type and epoch.
DateTime presents a little more friction. Specifically, it's a std::chrono::time_point<winrt::clock>, and there isn't a standard way to use them with std::chrono::system_clock::time_point. Since they're both referring to "system time" and system_clock is known to use Unix time as its epoch (de facto in C++17, and standard-guaranteed in C++20), it's a simple conversion.
Laying the proper groundwork by implementing to_sys(t) and from_sys(t) on winrt::clock will enable correct manual conversion now, and will power more generalized conversion in C++20.
